The Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art is pleased to present In Relation, an exhibition that touches on ideas around motherhood. Aware that no presentation of this subject can ever be definitive, the curation pushes back against restrictive interpretations and emphasizes the unexpected—from motherhood as a gigantic pan-species experience, to the deeply personal notion of “my mother” as represented by the details of an individual face.
In Relation features art from the Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art’s permanent collection along with sculpture, painting, fiber art, and multimedia work from seven Las Vegas artists. Here, Ailene Pasco insists on softness by transforming the stone surface of the iconic Venus of Willendorf into crochet; Martin Kreloff honors the mother who encouraged him to make art; and Lolita Develay presents a Black reimagining of L'Origine du mond (The Origin of the World), a famously controversial painting by the French Realist artist Gustave Courbet (1819–1877).
On that note, please be advised that this exhibition contains nudity.
In Relation includes artworks by Diane Bush and Steve Baskin, Adriana Chavez, Hue and Hong Chen, Lolita Develay, Kyla Hansen, Martin Kreloff, Michael Ogilvie, Lyssa Park, Ailene Pasco, and Lance L. Smith.
El Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art se enorgullece de presentar In Relation (En Relación), una exposición que aborda ideas en torno a la maternidad. Consciente de que ninguna presentación de este tema puede ser definitiva, la curaduría rechaza las interpretaciones restrictivas y enfatiza lo inesperado: desde la maternidad como una gigantesca experiencia panespecie hasta la noción profundamente personal de “mi madre” representada por los detalles de un rostro individual.
In Relation presenta arte de la colección permanente del Museo de Arte Marjorie Barrick junto con esculturas, pinturas, arte en fibras y obras multimedia adicionales de doce artistas de Las Vegas. Hue Chen responde a un suéter tejido por su madre Hong; Ailene Pasco empatiza con el estrés y el cansancio de la maternidad al brindarle a la icónica Venus de Willendorf la oportunidad de finalmente acostarse; Martin Kreloff honra a la madre que lo animó a hacer arte; y Lolita Develay presenta una reinvención en negro de L’Origine du monde (El origen del mundo), una famosa y controvertida pintura del artista realista francés Gustave Courbet (1819-1877).
En ese sentido, tenga en cuenta que esta exposición contiene desnudos.
