Andres Alvarez: Quotidian Fire/La Fiebre Cotidiana
Exhibit: October 3 – November 2, 2023
Reception: October 13, 6 – 9 PM
Andres Alvarez is a peripatetic photographer whose realm is the street. He keeps an eye out for the absurdities of daily life, pointing out ironies and contradictions, while still celebrating the exuberance of living. He has largely focused his lens on the streets of Sacramento, documenting the cultural celebrations, practices, and daily life of the diverse people who live in the region. His careful attention to the formal elements and the beauty of color is always present, even as he captures the conflict and economic disparity present in our own backyard.
Conversation with the Artist
October 29, 4 – 5:30 PM (FREE, $10 donation suggested)
Andres Alvarez joins Pence Director Natalie Nelson in conversation, as they discuss his influences, his method of capturing subjects, and how photography contributes to a larger dialogue about our current political and social realities.
This exhibit is generously sponsored by Helen Richardson.
