SAN DIEGO, CA. The San Diego Museum of Art is presenting the very first comprehensive exhibition of Latin American portraiture ever to tour the United States. Opening April 16, Retratos: 2,000 Years of Latin American Portraits reveals the richness of Latin Americas portrait tradition, from Pre-Columbian times to the present day, featuring examples by such modern masters as Frida Kahlo, Diego Rivera, Rufino Tamayo, and Fernando Botero. It will be supplemented by SDMAs biennial exhibition of student (K12) art, Young Art 2005: Portraits/Retratos, which will focus on the art of portraiture.
The month also features the San Diego Ballet in three performances of Eternally Bad from April 1 to 3. This hilarious, no-holds-barred dance extravaganza takes a sultry, sexy, and laugh-out-loud look at some of the most notorious goddesses and sirens of ancient lore.
And lastly, SDMA is complementing the Retratos exhibition with the next installment of its popular sundown series, Culture & Cocktails, on April 28. Guest can view the many faces of Latin America in a vibrant DJ-spun setting.
