How do we see movement in photography? Illusion: The Magic of Motion explores the ways that photography captures motion from still photographs to cinema and beyond. The exhibition will feature historic and contemporary art that shapes how we see motion, as well as have hands-on devices such as phenakistiscopes, thaumatropes, zoetropes to demonstrate how motion can be recreated.

Join the Charla on Thursday, November 19 at 11am for a conversation with David Avalos. A key figure in San Diego’s Chicano Art Movement, David Avalos works in sculpture, installation, and public projects. His sculptures unabashedly assert the vernacular of rasquache as a form of resilience in the face of social, racial, and economic adversity.
