The Cerritos College Art Gallery will open its doors to feature two new exhibits, “Architecture Deinforcement” and “Beyond The Tangible Universe As You Understand It.”

The opening reception will be on Sept. 10 from 4 to 8 p.m.

As stated in the official gallery press release, “Architecture Deinforcement” is a group art show comprising over 13 different artists.

Each artist use a wide range of mediums such as painting, sculpture and assemblage to create works centered around the theme of architectural ruins.

The second featured exhibit is a solo digital installation titled “Beyond The Tangible Universe As You Understand It” created by international artist Adam Davis.

The exhibit contains a looping reel of digitally animated photos of transition wires playing on four television screens accompanied by a soundtrack of 13 different alternating languages.

Both exhibits explore the issue of sociological, political and psychological fallout created in a continuously developing world.

According to James MacDevitt, Director/Curator of the art gallery, the conception of the exhibit “Architecture Deinforcement” intends to open a discussion of ruins, destruction, disaster and decay within the context of the current and ongoing housing crisis.

“Artists are impacted by the same issues we all are and often try to use their artist practice to shed light on the causes and consequences of larger social-cultural-poltical issues,” MacDevitt said.

He explains the “Beyond The Tangible Universe As You Understand” exhibit, “Explores competing and contrasting issues of faith and experience, highlighting the power of our beliefs to shape our reality.”
