Martin & Muñoz in the Midwest & Manhattan

The Mail Boat, 2007 © Walter Martin and Paloma Muñoz

Opening March 1 at The John Michael Kohler Arts Center is Wayward Bound from Walter Martin & Paloma Muñoz. The tiny microcosms created and photographed by the artists convey a fantastic aura of introspection, as their miniatures set in snow globes often depict alienating scenes of mystery through hostile situations and pilgrimages. The dramatic tension in the scenes is underscored through panoramic photographs of these dioramas in brilliant chilling colors. Aperture published Travelers in October 2008 with photographs from Martin & Muñoz and an accompanying story from Johnathan Lethem. A piece from Martin & Muñoz is also currently on display as part of Gana Art Gallery’s The Garden at 4am show in NYC. Both aesthetically and intellectually stimulating, Martin & Muñoz are not to be missed!
