jackie amezquita bricks new talent 1234743463

Jackie Amézquita, a Los Angeles-based artist originally from Guatemala, has developed a unique brick-making process using soil and masa de maíz (corn dough) mixed with organic materials like blue pea flower, cocoa, cochineal, and charcoal to create vibrant, colorful bricks. Her work, including the 2023 installation *El suelo que nos alimenta* commissioned by the Hammer Museum for the Made in L.A. biennial, uses soil from each of LA's neighborhoods to explore themes of migration, memory, and colonial legacies. Amézquita's practice is deeply personal, drawing on her family's migration history—her mother moved from Guatemala in 1987, and her grandmother fled Mexico during the Cristero War—and her own eight-day walk from Tijuana to LA, during which she collected soil samples as an archive of memory.

Fred Tomaselli presents his new exhibition “Blooms Disrupted,” opening May 15 at James Cohan’s 48 Walker Street location in New York.

art sculpture shows new york

A year after lamenting the dominance of safe, decorative painting in New York galleries, art critic Andrew Russel observes a decisive shift toward sculpture and installation in 2026.

Two exhibitions spotlight neglected aspects of Isa Genzken’s work: Galerie Buchholz focuses on her "Projects for Outside," while Zwirner Tribeca presents her "world receivers" concrete sculptures. Russel also highlights Paul Chan’s "breathers" at Greene Naftali and three standout shows—Robert Gober at Matthew Marks, Felix Beaudry at Situations, and a pairing of Hans Haacke and Louise Lawler at Maxwell Graham—as essential viewing alongside the Biennial.
