Conversations with Magdalena Suarez FrimkessThis past summer 2021, Art Division hosted ceramic artist Magdalena Suarez Frimkess in a conversation with students about her art and practice. Students then created work inspired by this encounter. The results are on display in Conversations with Magdalena, which includes 20 works by this important Venezuelan sculptor and ceramist, now 92 years old, and roughly 2 dozen works by Art Division students.

Memories Of Diaspora: Immigration Narratives of Los AngelesThis exhibition focuses on the personal struggles, hopes, and dreams that comprise immigrant experiences. On display is work by Art Division students and faculty as well as partners in Oaxaca. Some artists explore their identity as Los Angelenos of Mexican or Central American heritage while others highlight complex issues involved in considering the meaning of home or in traveling north to cross the border.
Art Division is a community organization dedicated to training and supporting young adults interested in studying visual arts. Several Art Division students have participated in residencies in Oaxaca to learn printmaking skills from master artists there. Many of the works chosen for Memories of Diaspora are a result of this symbiotic printmaking relationship. This installation is a reimagining of an earlier exhibition and was curated by Art Division students Mateo Carrero, Laila Telles, Nancy Torres and Vianey Valdez. Date: FEBRUARY - APRIL 2021 |

February 25th - April 7th 2018 - USC Fisher Museum of Art
Dos Colectivos: Prints from La Curtiduría and Art Division is not just a single, isolated exhibition, but rather another link in a growing chain of projects we have worked on together over the years. That chain began with Demián Flores’ and Dan McCleary’s one person exhibitions at the Fisher Museum more than a decade ago.
