Artist

Charlie Perez-Tlatenchi

Charlie Perez-Tlatenchi’s work crosses the boundaries of photography, painting, and printmaking. Rooted in the intercultural sensibility he cultivated growing up in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, his practice reflects on histories shaped by the histories operating under the shadows of globalization. His artistic language draws from the Latin American tradition of double entendre, or “doble sentido,” using allegory to imbue materials and images with layered meanings. This approach stems from his enduring fascination with layering knowledge, circulating imagery, and fragmenting compositions.

Charlie Perez-Tlatenchi has exhibited work at haul gallery, New York; Sikkema Jenkins & Co., New York; and Elizabeth Leach Gallery, Portland, among others.

A view of an artwork installed as an adhesive vinyl mural, cut up in several sections on a commercial window front. The image printed on the vinyl prominently feature saturated figures in varying image resolutions. Some appear digitally pixelated while others have a printed dot pattern when viewed closely. The more readily perceptible figures include a large angel holding the scales of justice in the top left, flying cherubs to the center-right, and palm trees on the right third of the composition.

A view of the same artwork in the first image, but this time showing the installation as it appears right after sun set. The vinyl become transparent as the light inside the window display become brighter than the sunlight outside. The saturated image becomes more subdued to reveal the framed artwork hanging on the wall behind the window.

A framed artwork that is built from an underlying lenticular print layer, and a fragemented pixelated image printed on the surface of the plexi glaze. As the viewer moves in front of the work, the lenticular image changes between a sunset style gradient and a more pastoral color scheme featuring a low-resolution rooster in the center.

Artist

Marianne Vlaschits

Marianne Vlaschits creates paintings and installations that explore connections between the human body and the so-called natural world. Drawn to the grotesque and enigmatic, she seeks to break down perceived borders and explore what can be gained by leaving them behind. Her process combines research, subconscious exploration, and experimentation with materials and techniques. For Vlaschits, making art is a negotiation between mind, body, and material, with painting as a sensual, physical experience that activates subconscious knowledge stored in the flesh. Fascinated by humanity’s ancient impulse to paint and the primal creative moment when art comes into being, she examines how paint expands thought across space and time. As a person who stutters, she is particularly interested in painting as a form of language and its potential to represent disabled speech.

Marianne Vlaschits has exhibited work at Kunstwerke, Berlin; Belvedere21. Vienna; and Leopold Museum, Vienna, among others.
