Prints by Rene Arceo
March 25 – June 6
Wednesday – Sunday 12 to 5 pm
Receptions: March 26, 5 – 8 pm and March 28, 5 – 10 pm
Arceo explores ideas related to dreams and dreamlike scenes through these relief prints. These prints freely and naturally emanate from his subconscious into lose lines, and progressively evolve into more defined forms. These forms construct a free-flowing composition, which seems to facilitate the telling of a story in a dreamlike atmosphere. Arceo gives preference to figurative narratives that include stylized human and humanlike characters. His upbringing and experiences in Mexico continue to inform his art production. Arceo, a printmaker who has called Chicago home since 1979, graduated from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1985.
