DCKT Contemporary presents an exhibition by Irvin Morazan, Temple of the Bearded Man.

Irvin Morazan’s solo exhibition of photography, collage and sculpture lends itself to a myriad of mythologies, superstitions and sub-cultures. The works are conduits for mythical beings and gateways into absurdity, forming bridges between artificial and natural worlds. Imaginary deities indulge in unpredictable hostility, gluttony and humor. Fantastical staged portraits and performances are intertwined with Pre-Columbian mythologies and urban Street aesthetics to blur the boundaries of culture and stereotypes. Illegal immigration, homelessness, Shamanism, Pop culture and fast food are contemporary issues that ascribe to abstract qualities of passage and traditions.

Procession/Performance: Friday, January 7, 6pm: A celebratory procession by Irvin Morazan, accompanied by a Norteño Mariachi band, from the old DCKT Contemporary location (195 Bowery) to the new DCKT Contemporary location (237 Eldridge Street).
