art eamon ore giron james cohan exhibition

Eamon Ore-Giron has taken over James Cohan's two downtown Manhattan galleries with "Conversations with Snakes, Birds, and Stars," an exhibition of new paintings and mosaics running through Dec. 20. The works draw on ancient Mesoamerican and Andean symbology, continuing his long-running "Talking Shit" series, which has previously been shown at the Contemporary Austin, Whitney Museum, and LACMA. In an interview with CULTURED, Ore-Giron discusses how he uses color, mythology, and ritual to create a universe where serpents, birds, and stars engage in dialogue with viewers and across time.
