The Museum of Modern Art Opens Rosa Tav\u00e1rez Exhibit “Territories of Passion and Memory”<\/STRONG> T<\/SPAN>he Ministry of Culture and the Museum of Modern Art (MAM in Spanish) will inaugurate \u201cRosa Tav\u00e1rez: Territories of Passion and Memory,\u201d a retrospective from 1963 to 2013, that includes paintings, prints, drawings and constructions, arranged throughout the museum in a display that spans five decades of intense and fructiferous artistic creation.<\/P> The inaugural event for the exhibit, curated by Amable L\u00f3pez Mel\u00e9ndez, Art Critic and Chief Curator at the Museum of Modern Art, will take place Friday, November 29th at 7:30 p.m. on the second floor of the MAM. There, the viewers will get the chance to enjoy the three sections, or periods, of artistic production that make up the body of the exhibition.<\/P> The curatorial proposal was segmented into three creative parts, according to the curator of the exhibit. \u201cThe first includes 23 works on canvas and paper from the first decade (1963-1973): landscapes, portraits, nudes, and other compositions of an academic character, rigorous esthetic formality and a penetrating social message.\u201d The third decade includes over 100 paintings and drawings done between 1980 and 2013, a creative era in which Rosa Tav\u00e1rez touches on the process of transmutation and poly-synthesis of figurative post expressionism, abstract North American expressionism, European Informalism<\/EM>, Italian vanguard and the sensitive Latin American geometry.<\/P> \u201cEnigmas\u201d, \u201cGeometr\u00eda Herida\u201d, \u201cEcos del Grito Ecol\u00f3gico\u201d, \u201cAbstracciones figurativas\u201d, \u201cCuerpos terrenales\u201d and \u201cFiguraciones Geom\u00e9tricas\u201d are series born from this process. They are paintings with amazing metaphorical content, whose surfaces reactivate the energetic abstractionist discourse without leaving behind their mark of identity: the subject is in its sociocultural and ecological environment; the meaning of the Earth; the social landscape; what\u2019s truly marvelous; the consubstantial magic and the absurd mundane of the Caribbean. <\/P>The Dominican Republic\u2019s Museum of Modern Art is open to the public Tuesday to Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and is located on Pedro Henr\u00edquez Ure\u00f1a Avenue, Juan Pablo Duarte Culture Plaza.
