The Alvarez-Velazquez Family of Artists will be exhibiting at the South First Billiard Gallery in San Jose.
Please join us for our first family exhibition:
All in One is a collaborative art exhibition between three
members of a family.
In their first family show, this unit of artists—mother, son, and father
utilize different media and expressions, which is evocative in their artwork.
Efren Alvarez is a painter, who
uses the traditional medium of oils to expose highly satirical messages on
border issues. With his overtly
prolific collection of hundreds of paintings created, Efren has captured the
eyes of many local collectors and has recently exhibited at MACLA, in San Jose,
and will be in a group exhibition; We Are You Project, at the Joyce Gordon Gallery in Oakland in August of
this year.
Cristina Velazquez is a mix media
seeker, who employs the use of your recyclables to transform what has been
discarded into pieces of fine art.
Although considered trash, the outcome will not be such. Until we can eat our own trash, we
will continue to have a garbage problem;
Velazquez shares about her site-specific installation, Eat My Trash.
Recently has exhibited at the Sanchez Art Center in Pacifica, with an
upcoming show at Pam Foss
Fine Art Gallery in Maryland in November.
Pedro A. Alvarez-Velazquez, at his
early 15 years of age has accumulated a vast portfolio of images captured
through his different lenses. A
photographer with an expansive view on high art, shares part of his collection
in this art exhibition. As a young
photographer he has render different colors and textures, that where shot in
passing moments on hikes, at site seeing outings, and on everyday life with
camera on hand. Pedro has an acute
eye for details and expands his repertoire of images by engaging in the most
minute to the grand and showy of objects.
