Virgil Ortiz’s Revolt 1680/2180 epic saga opens a new portal
to unleash his latest series, Convergence — a new body of
large-scale raku-fired sculptures emblazoned with
bold-colored glazes and unexpected textures. He creates
time-traveling warriors, the Recon Watchmen. Their mission:
safeguarding the Pueblo people's past, present, and future
and ensuring their survival and perseverance against the
threat of the Castilian Army encroaching on the Pueblo lands.
This work will be featured in Ortiz's solo exhibition in 2024
at the Lowe Museum of Art in Miami, as well as at
[CONTAINER].
