Opening Reception | Lo grabado de lo vivido (What is etched from what has been lived): Solo Monorpint Exhibition Exploring Land, Labor, & Identity

Opening Receptions, September 10, 2026, 09/10/2026, Lo grabado de lo vivido (What is etched from what has been lived): Solo Monorpint Exhibition Exploring Land, Labor, & Identity

Thursday, September 10, 2026, 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm

Free

An exhibition of new works by Gamaliel Rodríguez. Conjuring vibrant images of his native Puerto Rico and the wider Caribbean, Rodríguez's new monoprints revisit themes central to his practice while exploring the expansive possibilities of printmaking at a new scale. Rendered across sweeping surfaces exceeding four feet, the works transform landscapes of the artist's homeland into meditations on the contested relationship between nature and the built environment. Rodríguez’s new body of work confronts the enduring tension between nature and industry across the postcolonial Caribbean and American landscapes.

Rodríguez's electric chroma palette recalls the idyllic imagery of vintage travel postcards and tourist advertisements while subtly unsettling those familiar scenes. While appearing to be tropical scenes, the works on view are actually rooted in specific sites that register the climate implications of commercialized industrialization, including the Milwaukee War Museum, the ethanol power plant in Medina, New York, and the Cataño distillery in Puerto Rico. By anchoring the works in real destinations of commerce, production, and power, the artist renders the traceable weight of colonial history embedded in the landscape. Power appears both literally, through electrical infrastructure and industrial sites, and metaphorically through the systems that continue to shape land, labor, and identity across the Caribbean.
