Piero Fenci: La Cerca"La Cerca," Fenci's solo exhibition, opened at the state museum in Chihuahua City, Chihuahua, Mexico. The exhibition, which includes twenty-four ceramic pieces, a 5-foot-by-9-foot drawing and several smaller drawings, is the culmination of two years of work, both on the art and in negotiations with the museum officials. All of the works in some way or another deal with defense strategies, and so Fenci chose the Spanish translation for "The Wall" as the exhibition's title. "We build these elaborate structures that give us a sense of safety and protection, but the fact is, they're all futile." In addition to this photographed collection of Fenci's work are essays by David A. Lewis, Scott Robinson, Adan Saenz, and others. |
