Atlanta artist Alexi Torres will present Unbrainwashable at Brenau University this fall. The solo exhibit features contemporary sculptures, installments and large scale oil paintings that emphasize the importance of thinking for oneself.
Torres was born in Bermeja, Cuba, a small village about 70 miles southeast of Havana. He came to the United States in 2003 and maintains a studio in Atlanta. Much of his work is political in nature, and reflections of life under communism and political unrest in Cuba.
Brenau Galleries will host an opening night reception from 6-8 p.m. on Thursday, Sept. 19, at the Leo Castelli Art Gallery on Brenau’s historic Gainesville campus. The artist will discuss his life and work at 6:45 p.m. in Redwine Lobby in the John S. Burd Center for the Performing Arts. The exhibit will be on display through Nov. 9.
