Beacon Gallery announces its latest exhibition Julia Csekö: This Is Where My Heart Is, featuring the work of Boston based, Brazilian-American artist Julia Csekö, which runs April 21 - May 28, 2023. The show focuses on the artist's disparate explorations and paradigm-shifting work through colorful paintings, plush infinity symbols and hearts, even a metal fork sculpture symbolizing societal appetite, as well as a series of flags.

BOSTON, April 11, 2023 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- Beacon Gallery is pleased to announce its next exhibition Julia Csekö: This Is Where My Heart Is, which features the work of Boston based, Brazilian-American artist Julia Csekö. This solo exhibition will run from April 21 - May 28, 2023, and focus on the amalgamation of the artist's disparate explorations and paradigm-shifting work through her colorful paintings, plush infinity symbols and hearts, even a metal fork sculpture symbolizing societal appetite, as well as a series of flags.

As a conceptual artist, Csekö shares parts of her transnational identity through her geometric and text-based paintings, the use of symbols including brightly colored hearts and flags, collective stainless steel utensils and textile sculptures. Whether joyous or critical, these featured works delve into the apocalyptic yet wondrous nature of humanity, within the conflict of unending appetites and finite resources.

“Being an immigrant and dual citizen offers a disturbing perspective, that the spiraling degradation of Brazil’s environment, natural resources, democracy and political scenario are not isolated events…and that dialogue is the only true form of education, which influences my creative practice.”

"Being an immigrant and dual citizen offers a disturbing perspective, that the spiraling degradation of Brazil's environment, natural resources, democracy and political scenario are not isolated events," says Csekö. She adds, "Brazilian thinker Paulo Freire and his critical pedagogy have taught me that dialogue is the only true form of education, and this premise continues to influence my creative practice."

Beacon Gallery owner Christine O'Donnell remarks, "Julia's work presents hopeful, uplifting messages that reveal the contradictory predisposition of human nature, and serve as an expressive societal critique. The variety of media in which she works speaks to the vast creativity of her ideas, and we're excited to host her solo show at the gallery."

Original paintings and fabric work, as well as limited edition prints will be available for sale soon.

About the Artist
Julia Csekö currently divides her time between her practice as a visual artist, independent curator, educator, arts administrator and arts advocate. She is an artist-in-residence at the Boston Center for the Arts, Andy Warhol Foundation Collective Futures grantee, a Beacon Gallery represented artist, and a grantee of both the Newton and Randolph Local Cultural Councils in MA. In 2023, Csekö will also serve as a Somerville Arts Council cultural ambassador and a Tufts University Art Galleries Permanent Collection acquisitions committee member.

Her commitment to art and advocacy started while pursuing a BFA from the Federal University of Rio and founding Group Py, an artist collective from 2005 - 2008, serving as first assistant to Brazilian sculptor Ernesto Neto, and through her activist efforts to increase national funding for arts and culture, and dialogue with the Brazilian Ministry of Culture. In 2022, she served as the Somerville Museum community curator organizing the Sanctuary City Exhibition and was a MassCreative CTV Fellow participating in the creation of a policy document bringing arts and culture to the agendas of Massachusetts gubernatorial candidates.

Her trajectory as an artist, curator, and organizer is focused on diversity, inclusion, community building, artistic innovation, political engagement, social justice, and experimentation. Csekö has participated in and organized numerous group exhibitions at national and international venues as well as in unconventional spaces including a ferryboat. Her work is featured in collections locally and abroad, at Tufts University Art Galleries, Emerson College, Arts and Businesses Council of Greater Boston, the University of British Columbia, the Museum of Modern Art in Rio de Janeiro, Centro Cultural São Paulo, and private collections.
