Opening Night Special Event: “Tacos a la Microonda” by artist Albert Lopez Jr., roughly translates to “Tacos a la Microwave” is a conceptual artwork that deconstructs cannibalizing culture, consisting of a wooden platform enclosure that hosts both the artist and a DJ.
The platform itself is a sculpture with colored lights, but also holds a microwave, food prep station, a tortilla holder and compartments for condiments such as cilantro, onions and salsa. The performance actions consist of the artist preparing and serving tacos. Guests will be invited to have a free plate of tacos prepared by the artist.
