Yeh Art Gallery at St. John's University

It’s your last chance to see Claudia Peña Salinas’s exhibition Itzkan @proxycogallery in collaboration with @embajadada. Peña Salinas was included in our 2019 exhibition #DIPLOMACY. Itzkan closes on December 23. // PROXYCO and Embajada jointly present Itzkan, a solo show by Mexican artist Claudia Peña Salinas. The exhibition takes its name from the original combination of the Maya terms , which refers to knowledge, magic, and occult power, and , the word for serpent.... Moreover, is the appellation of the first Maya occupants of the Chichen Itzá area in Yucatán, one of the most visited archaeological sites in the Mexican peninsula and the premise of this exhibition. Through the creation of a series of distorted reflections, Peña Salinas reassesses the sacred ancient knowledge embedded in both built and natural landmarks across the ways in which these are portrayed as tourist destinations. -Paulina Ascencio Fuentes #claudiapeñasalinas #itzkan #embajada #proxycogallery #yehartgallery #contemporaryart

In his layered wor...k, Domenech invites viewers to join him on a journey: to walk the city. - Yasi Alipour // While the exhibition is now closed, you read the review in the December issue of the #BrooklynRail via the link in our bio. #rafaeldomenech #yasialipour #yehartgallery #stjohnsuniversity #walkthecity @r_domenech

Here we are: the final hours of our fall 2020 exhibitions with Rafael Domenech, Jesse Chun, and Andy Warhol. Thank you to everyone who made these moving, poignant, timely projects possible. We will especially miss @r_domenech’s ceiling, the glow of @jessechun’s video installation, and always having @dollyparton in the gallery. We’ll be back early next year with more art to share.
