Gustavo Pérez: Self Portrait in Black and White
Museum of Craft and Design, San Francisco, California
November 10, 2018 – February 24, 2019
Gustavo Pérez: Self Portrait in Black and White is part of the museum’s Visible Transparency Project, which invites visitors to witness the behind-the-scenes exhibition installation. Pérez’s installation will take place during regular museum hours Tuesday, November 6th through Thursday, November 8th.
Gustavo Pérez’s work is a mixture of theme, development and intuition. The works that result are like a logbook of where he has been and where he is now in his relationship to clay. The work presented for MCD will be an installation of recent work wherein Pérez’s creative process will become visible. The installation presents several different series of work, marking lines in Pérez’s development. Some cycles grow organically, and others contradict. By presenting the series together, both individual pieces and the relationships between them become evident.
