ABAD MEXICALI : SAN DIEGO STATE UNIVERSITY [70]

A Book About Death will open in Mexicali at San Diego State University's Steppling Art Gallery on March 10. Curated by artist Bibiana Padilla Maltos & Sheila Dollente, the exhibition combines the archival works from the original exhibition at The Emily Harvey Foundation Gallery in New York with new works sent in by mail in the form of 4 x 6 inch postcards...on the theme of death.

Bibiana Padilla Maltos is one of the original artists involved in the project that launched in New York.  She previously organized an exhibition of the work in Tiajuana Mexico.  She notes that she is currently planning a larger exhibition for a museum yet to be determined in Mexico City, Mexico later on in 2010.  Bibiana is both artist and curator; her work focuses on a wide range of post-Fluxus concepts.
