SUMMARY:Embrace 
by ARENA
DESCRIPTION:“The desert is defined by the blazing sun and the need to find shelter from it. The arts center (ASU Art Museum) acknowledges this duality by linking earth and sky. The main entrance descends into the earth in search of coolness and psychological distance from the fierce sun above.” –Antoine Predock\, ASU Art Museum Building architect\, 1989 \nIn today’s day and age\, art museum lobbies tend to look the same\, promoting a kind of high-class taste. They often rely on designs that use modern furniture; cold\, hard floors; classical music; and other signals (like Italian coffees in their cafes and expensive gift items in their shops) that are familiar to some populations and alienating to others. As a museum that strives to be inclusive and to acknowledge people from all walks of life\, ASU Art Museum commissioned ARENA (the artist duo Mario Gallego and Jorge Ignacio Torres) to reimagine the visitor experience. This artistic intervention\, titled “Embrace\,” focuses on themes of welcome\, placemaking and placekeeping\, and the activation of the five senses. ARENA (the Spanish word that translates to sand) was directly influenced by the landscape of the Sonoran desert and the building architect’s use of space and light. \nAbout the artists: \nJorge Ignacio Torres works at the intersection of art\, design and culture. His interdisciplinary practice focuses on how our experiences\, both everyday and ritualized\, can speak to contemporary society and how it is perceived. He is the founder of Palabra in Phoenix\, a space that houses and cultivates art\, music and culinary arts.  \nMario Gallego is a creative brand strategist with an emphasis on design and art. He bridges various cultures through curated experiences as a multifaceted creative strategist\, and he authentically connects community to art and design.

SUMMARY:A pattern\, a trace\, a portrait: Four Artists from CALA Alliance’s Residency Program
DESCRIPTION:“A pattern\, a trace\, a portrait: Four Artists from CALA Alliance’s Residency Program” showcases new and existing work by Carolina Aranibar-Fernández\, Diana Calderón\, Estrella Esquilín and Sam Frésquez. These regional Latinx artists each present discrete installations that weave together universal themes of memory\, loss and grief while highlighting issues related to place and the destruction of our natural environment. A pattern\, a trace\, a portrait highlights the dichotomy between the most intimate histories and the most global concerns. \nThis exhibition showcases\, in part\, a partnership between CALA Alliance and ASU Art Museum. CALA Alliance (Celebración Artística de las Américas) is a Latinx arts organization based in Phoenix. CALA Alliance collaborates with artists and arts organizations to nurture artistic talent\, focusing on artists from the Latin American diaspora. The organization advances its mission through innovative artist residencies\, artist commissions\, community workshops\, and public programming that position the Metro Phoenix region as a fruitful site that acknowledges and contributes to the promotion of Latinx art throughout the United States. \nCALA Alliance and ASU Art Museum work in partnership to achieve their common mission of incubating and accelerating the presence of Latinx art in the United States. Together CALA Alliance and ASUAM promote the exchange of new ideas\, perspectives\, and experiences among artists\, students\, and the public through various programs\, especially those that educate and inspire the public about the richness of the Latinx cultural heritage.
