Anthony Goicolea: Alter Ego: A Decade of Work
North Carolina Museum of Art, North Dakota, Raleigh, 04/17/2011 - 07/24/2011
ABOUT
Anthony Goicolea’s multimedia works depict a fantastic world completely fabricated by the artist. His early color photographs and videos focus on multiple self-portraits that explore issues of identity. A later series examines environmental destruction and globalization in black-and-white landscape photographs that are simultaneously visually seductive and unsettling. In his most recent work, Goicolea explores issues of displacement, dislocation, and identity with portraits and installations that feature his extended family. His ability to move with ease from traditional media, such as painting and drawing, to video and digitally manipulated photography has put him at the forefront of contemporary art.
Alter Ego will be the artist’s first monographic exhibition to include both early and recent works of art that represent the vast scope of his career to date. The exhibition features about 30 works of art, ranging from photography and painting to video and mixed-media installations.
