JOSEPH CLAYES III & CAROLYN YORSTON-WELLCOME ROTUNDA GALLERIES
32nd ANNUAL JURIED EXHIBITION
One of the most prestigious juried shows in San Diego, selected artists will exhibit their work in our galleries, receive excellent exposure, and mingle with both artists and art lovers at an opening reception. Prize winners, including the recipient of the Leslie Von Kolb Memorial Award, will be announced at the opening reception.
Our juror this year is Armando Pulido, Writer and Curatorial Assistant, Lucas Museum of Narrative Art. Pulido is a regular contributor to Frieze magazine. He has reviewed exhibitions in Los Angeles that help to expand the social art histories of contemporary art, such as the Made In L.A. biennial and Painting in the River of Angels: Judy Baca and The Great Wall. His research has focused on art from the U.S.-Mexico borderlands, Mexican Muralism, and contemporary U.S. Latinx art. He has contributed to exhibition projects at the Hood Museum of Art at Dartmouth College and the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and was recently a fellow of the AllPaper Seminar at the Benton Museum of Art at Pomona College. Prior to the Lucas Museum, Armando held curatorial positions at the Whitney Museum of American Art.
