Los Angeles Nomadic Division (LAND)
January 30, 2010 - March 28, 2010

Mexico City-based artist José León Cerrillo will take up residency for a course of two months at R.M. Schindler’s Fitzpatrick-Leland House, in collaboration with the MAK Center for Art and Architecture, L.A. On site, Cerrillo will produce a series of posters riffing on the graphic programs of a variety of sources – from the familiar Art and Architecture portfolio of “lifestyle” modernism, to Schindler’s and other LA-based architects’ body of work, to the present-day print material offered by the MAK Center itself. This on-going production, culminating in a limited edition publication with art press Paper Chase Press, will be activated by a series of evening events, each thematically addressing or reanimating a specific aspect of the “total lifestyle” architectural program.

Visitation is available by appointment. Please email info@nomadicdivision.org to make a reservation.
