An exhibiton curated by Professor Beatriz Cortez was recently selected by Hyperallergic as one of the best exhibitions around the world for 2025!
“Temporary Home” was curated by Professor Cortez at the Galka Scheyer House in LA July 18-27 while she was an artist-in-residence with the Blue Heights Arts and Culture at the Scheyer House. Cortez, who had recently been displaced by the Eaton Fire, explored the house’s history as a refuge for Scheyer who migrated from Europe during World War II and settled in the Hollywood hills and then created a cultural refuge for visiting artists. In “Temporary Home,” Cortez connected these histories to the stories of displacements in our current moment. Featured in the exhibition were works by Cortez, Sarah Espinoza, Phillip Byrne (M.F.A. ‘22), Tatiana Guerrero, rafa esparza, Maria Maea and current graduate student Marjorie Williams (M.F.A. ‘26).
