Terra Incógnita is an exhibition of new paintings by Raul Guerrero on view in New York at David Kordansky Gallery. For over four decades, Guerrero has made work informed by his experiences navigating Southern California and northern Mexico as an American of Mexican ancestry paired with an abiding engagement in global art historical movements like Surrealism. Guerrero’s work emerges from an interest in examining Southern California’s connection to the continent at large, taking the form of visual and object-based references commonly found in the region. 

The exhibition runs until June 8.
