drkrm.gallery is pleased to announce the first Los Angeles exhibition of Flesh Life: Sex in Mexico City, the work of Internationally recognized New York based photographer Joseph Rodríguez, from February 14 through March 15, 2009, with an opening reception on Saturday evening, February 14, from 7-10.
Rodríguez’s beautiful and brutally honest images suggest a culture in which spirit and flesh have always been inextricably intertwined. In this series of startlingly intimate black-and-white photographs we encounter a re-sexualized and re-spiritualized country in flux, embracing religious dogma while discarding taboos that once shrouded sex in a haze of artifice, euphemism, and history.
drkrm. gallery is an exhibition space dedicated to fine art and documentary photography, cutting edge and alternative photographic processes and the display and survey of popular cultural images. Regular gallery hours are Tuesday – Saturday, 11 am – 5 pm. Sunday 1-4pm.
All gallery events are free and open to the public.
