Patrick McGrath Muñíz: Psyche Soma Nous 2018, oil and metal leaf on panel

Evoke Contemporary, 550 S. Guadalupe St., 505-995-9902 Artist Patrick McGrath Muñíz recontextualizes the religious iconography of colonial Latin America painting, putting a contemporary spin on the historic traditions of the New World. He explores issues such as consumerism and celebrity idolization, juxtaposing spiritual and religious themes with the material concerns of modern times. His compositions, often set in ornate handmade frames that recall traditional religious altarpieces and retablos, question outmoded representations of Latin American and indigenous peoples. New works by the artist are on view in the gallery.
