Gallery Opening: Foundations of Imagination

  • Agarita Loft 724 S. Alamo St #2 San Antonio, TX 78205 (map)

Fall exhibition at Agarita Loft Fountains of Imagination features artwork by Symone Martinez, Dan Soder, Maya Sokovic, and Ali Wiesse; curated by Katy Silva León.

Fountains of Imagination draws inspiration from the poetry book “A Coney Island of the Mind” written by Lawrence Ferlinghetti, which explores the challenges of our time via supernatural, playful and distinctly imagined environments. The title of this exhibition is borrowed from the last section of poem 13: “how heaven is, the perfect picture of a monarchy, and there would be no fires burning, in the hellish holes below, in which I might have stepped, nor any altars in the sky, except fountains of imagination.” 

These artists present work that is an allegory of modern life, similarly to the poems by Ferlinghetti, each from their own distinct creative perspective.  

Private appointments upon request. Please call or text the curator, Katy Silva León at 909-518-2245.

Note: the Loft is on the 2nd floor and only accessible by stairs. Capacity is limited in this 1300 sq ft space.
