Art from the heart
Artist gets emotional talking about his family, particularly his father, who died about five years ago; he chokes up sharing the story of the woman who thanked him for teaching her "something good" following a wreath-making class in a housing project; and that he gets teary-eyed discussing the inspiration behind "Ancient Guardians from the Sky," a site-specific installation and new painting series currently at Arts.
"But,[url=http://duveticaonlineitaly.albirank.net/][b]duvetica jackets shop online[/b][/url], you realize, they're tears of joy," Zamora Casas says. "They're not tears of sadness. They're tears of gratification and fulfillment."
For a long period,[url=http://merrellfootwearforkids.olimx.com/][b]discount merrell shoes[/b][/url], Zamora Casas wouldn't have cried so easily or without embarrassment.
He recalls a conversation he had by having an older, closeted friend. Then a teen, he watched as the man broke down while reminiscing about a former lover. At the time, he took his friend's tears as a manifestation of weakness.
"This man was the reason that I swore to myself that I would never cry," he says. "And basically did,[url=http://woolrichoutletitalia.halod.com/][b]Woolrich Arctic Parka[/b][/url], I wouldn't let anybody see me."
Zamora Casas continues to be noted for years as one of the more terrible of the art scene's enfants terrible a provocateur in red lipstick along with a waxed Dali-style mustache likely to appear at openings dressed in a priest's cassock or perhaps a full Mexican skirt buoyed by petticoats. He's still that. At 50, however, the openly gay Chicano artist and activist has achieved a particular grace.
"I really feel like I have cultural currency, and a history," he admits that. "I went to the college of hard ? knocks,[url=http://duveticapiuminiitalia.webmium.com/][b]Duvetica Piumini[/b][/url], of chingasos. There's wisdom in age. There's a dicho: el diablo sabe mas por viejo de que por diablo. (The devil knows more from being old than from being the devil.)"
Much of what Zamora Casas has discovered love, sex, family and spirituality is woven into the installation at Bihl Haus, a work that's by turns romantic and confrontational.
The doorway to "The Chapel of Love" a set up within the installation about marriage and commitment is marked with yellow caution tape. In the opening reception,[url=http://monclerjackasverige.albirank.net/][b]moncler Jackor återförsäljare[/b][/url], gallery volunteers warned visitors to keep kids out. Inside, the primary focus is a vintage lace wedding dress suspended in a tiny alcove. On the floor below,[url=http://duveticaonlineitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica italia[/b][/url], a pair of men's wingtip shoes bracket a pair of white leather baby shoes. All the pieces belonged to Zamora Casas' family members the gown was his mother's; the men's shoes were his father's; and the baby shoes were his nephew's. The touching montage is juxtaposed with black-and-white photographs of sexually aroused nude men.
"I don't know if I'm for gay marriage as heterosexual marriage is," says Zamora Casas, who prefers the term "double-spirited," instead of gay, to explain his sexuality. "I just think that the spiritual union is more than the usual piece of paper, and I think it's valid be it man on woman; or woman on woman; or man on man. Therefore it is about the yearning to have an ally in everyday life; to have a spiritual union along with a partner that isn't only a sexual partner, but somebody that's looking out for you."
The nude photographs aren't meant to shock,[url=http://parajumpersoutletitalia.albirank.net/][b]http://parajumpersoutletitalia.albirank.net/[/b][/url], Zamora Casas says.
"I think it's important to be truthful. Which is honest. That's my life," he admits that. "This is what do they call it? love that dare not speak its name.' And i am speaking its name as love; as real love."
At Bihl Haus, Zamora Casas says he wanted to create a "magical space." Fractured light from the disco ball bounces from the walls in the darkened gallery. Rose petals are scattered around the periphery. Aromatic stargazer lilies and birds of paradise decorate a pair of altars, and textiles including lush velvet and gauzy tulle cascade on the walls.
The title from the piece comes from his "belief that there's more to religion and life than we know" he admits that. "Or maybe some people know but aren't telling. I do not doubt anything,[url=http://billigtmonclerdunjackastockholmrea.olimx.com/][b]Moncler Jacka[/b][/url]. Anything can be done."
Canvas works by the self-taught artist, who paints inside a folk art style, are located through the installation.
"Myth Becomes Legend/La Vicki" was inspired by a piece written by playwright about Josefa "Chipita" Rodriguez,[url=http://monclerjackasverige.albirank.net/][b]Billigt Moncler Jacka Outlet Online[/b][/url]. The Mexican American woman was charged with murdering a white man and hanged in Texas in 1863,[url=http://billigeparajumpersjackendamen.albirank.net/][b]Billige Parajumpers jacken damen[/b][/url].
In the piece,[url=http://woolrichswedense.albirank.net/][b]woolrich online shop sweden[/b][/url], Rodriguez dangles from the red, white and blue noose, wearing an orange dress that blooms right into a flower.
"I cried the most with this particular painting than I've ever cried before," Zamora Casas says. "It's like when Chipita died,[url=http://parajumpersparka.webmium.com/][b]Parajumpers Jackets On Sale Parajumpers Parka Coat Online Store[/b][/url], who did she bid farewell to? Who loved her?"
"Madre Inmigrante" ("Immigrant Mother"),[url=http://parajumpersparka.webmium.com/][b]Parajumpers Coat Online[/b][/url], a painting Zamora Casas describes as a "protest piece,[url=http://duveticaonlineitaly.albirank.net/][b]Duvetica piumini[/b][/url]," combines the imagery and iconography from the Virgen de Guadalupe and also the Aztec goddess Coatlicue. In the piece, a Madonna figure hovers in the sky. A row of magueys bloom on earth below. Installed on a wall above an altar, the painting is framed by red,[url=http://monclerjackasverige.albirank.net/][b]http://monclerjackasverige.albirank.net/[/b][/url], white and blue tulle.相关的主题文章：
