601Artspace. New York.February 2011

The 601Artspace featured powerful and provoking images by Joseph Rodriguez and Martín Weber. The images attempt to expose how cultural subjects are framed and naturalized. These images were striking and confrontational. There were elements of performance in Rodriguez work where his subject had been asked to hold signs which were translated in the exhibition, giving the people in them a voice. These people appeared vulnerable but honest in there statement and position. The images really spoke me to, engaged me with there simplicity and Rodriguez work is one of my personal favorites.
