DECEMBER EXHIBITIONS: EUGENIA MARTINEZ, MICHAEL HOPPEN GALLERY
Renowned for introducing interesting artists, the Michael Hoppen Gallery will unveil an exhibition of photographic portraits in December by Mexican artist Eugenia Martinez, exploring her native country’s multi-layered identity and turbulent history. “Working with Mexican portraits of the past, Martinez incorporates quotes from politicians, song lyrics and slang, in different shades of white, into her portraits to create a hypnotic and even optical effect,” comments Michael Hoppen.
