The New School Art Collection and Parsons’ Sheila C. Johnson Design Center are pleased to invite students and faculty to a closing reception for Re-Imagining Orozco and contributing artist Enrique Chagoya in the Anna-Maria and Stephen Kellen Gallery.

This exhibit is a collective university-wide engagement with the historic 1931 New School for Social Research mural cycle “A Call to Revolution” and “Table of Universal Brotherhood” by the important Mexican artist, Jose Clemente Orozco. Along with projections of the original murals, the exhibition features large-scale drawings by visiting artist Enrique Chagoya, created in response to Orozco’s murals, as well as prints, video, and mixed media works by students from Parsons’ Design + Technology, Illustration, and Product Design programs, and Eugene Lang College. Additional contributions were made by faculty and students from The New School for Drama, The New School for Social Research, and composer David Lopato, The New School for Jazz.

Curated by Silvia Rocciolo and Erik Stark.
