Virtual Friday Night Films at the Wende: Enrique Martínez Celaya: The Pearl
In 2012, acclaimed artist and author Enrique Martínez Celaya transformed 12,000 square feet of gallery spaces at SITE Santa Fe, New Mexico, into an immersive environment that included painting, sculpture, video, photography, waterwork, sound, writing, and the artist’s first musical arrangement. In The Pearl, Martínez Celaya takes the notion of home as both a point of departure and a destination to craft a visual poem of strong emotional, philosophical, and psychological resonance. Enrique Martínez Celaya: The Pearl follows the artist during the making and installation of his immersive project, in his Miami studio, and at SITE Santa Fe.
Enrique Martínez Celaya was the guest on this week’s Art Past Present. The Pearl will be available to stream via the Wende Museum through August 26, 2020.
