Alfredo Ramos Mart铆nez’s art on display at the Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery.San Gabriel Valley Tribune columnist David Allen featured the Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery exhibit on Alfredo Ramos Mart铆nez titled Pintor de Poemas: Unseen Works by Alfredo Ramos Mart铆nez in a recent column for the Tribune.
Allen writes about how the exhibit鈥攇uest curated by 五月天视频alumna Robin Dubin, director of Louis Stern Fine Arts鈥攕howcases Mart铆nez鈥檚 how work centers labor, revolution, war, women, flowers and Indigenous people and provides a new lens for viewers to examine his art. Through an interview with Gabrielle Jungels-Winkler Director of the Ruth Chandler Williamson Gallery Erin Curtis, Allen tells the story of how Mart铆nez鈥檚 popular Las vendedoras de flores (The Flower Vendors) mural in Margaret Fowler Gardens came to be at Scripps.
鈥淎s Ramos Mart铆nez鈥檚 final work, the panels immortalize the stages of his working process. They also serve as a poignant, frozen-in-time display of his own mortality, captured on a wall at a college rather than on an easel in his studio,鈥� Allen writes in tribute to Mart铆nez.
