SUMMARY:Tonia Calderon: Endless
DESCRIPTION:Art in Focus is dedicated to intimate\, project-based presentations by invited artists or drawn from the museum’s collection that encourage sustained engagement and deep attention. “Tonia Calderon: Endless” extends this commitment by positioning the gallery as a site of learning\, reflection and experimentation. \nFor this project\, Los Angeles–based artist Tonia Calderon brings elements of her studio into the museum\, including a large-scale panel painting\, a newly created suite of works on paper and her personal library. Layered surfaces\, dense textures and shifts in scale characterize the work\, moving between the microscopic and the expansive. Calderon combines natural and synthetic materials\, often incorporating flowers as both subject and pigment to reference cycles of growth\, decay and renewal. \nAt the center of the installation\, Calderon’s library underscores reading as an active and generative part of her practice. Language\, memory and material remain in motion throughout “Endless\,” which resists resolution and embraces repetition\, return and transformation. The exhibition invites visitors to linger within this rhythm and to consider art as a lifelong practice of becoming. \n“Tonia Calderon: Endless” is organized by ASU Art Museum Senior Curator Alana Hernandez and ASU Art Museum Latinx Curatorial Fellow Natalie Solis. \n\nThis exhibition and its related programming and events are made possible by our supporters of the Visionary Artist Series and our preferred hospitality partner\, the Omni Tempe Hotel at ASU.
