The studio of Enrique MartÃnez Celaya will be open for an informal brunch to unveil several monumental works he has created for his upcoming solo show at SITE Santa Fe. This is a rare opportunity to see several key elements of what will be an unprecedented museum-wide installation that MartÃnez Celaya is creating for SITE next summer. For these new works, which include two large-scale paintings, and two massive sculptures, the artist has relied on readings on the nature of memory and on his own biography to create a world that belongs to the imagination of children and which juxtaposes sadness and melancholia against fantasy.
