« Parker's International Art Market with performance by Le Fa She | Main | Cover This »
Adobe Empire Opening
Filipino artist Louie Cordero meets Filipino American artist Jordin Isip in the temple of doom. Louie's paintings are saturated with Philippine pop culture, American sci-fi, monster and pulp images, twisted piles of feces, Catholic religious iconography and large servings of indigenous food.
Jordin's iconic figures are poised in symbolic interaction. Anthropomorphic beings like monkeymen grasping nunchakus, mask wearing spotted beasts, and Philippine Ifugao rice gods are the protagonists inhabiting the landscape of his narrative. The two artists are in a dialogue connected by an ancient tribal bloodline.
