In Obsessive Compulsive Drawings, Chilean musician and artist Gonzalo Silva expands the utilitarian boundaries of the household ballpoint pen by detailing his compulsions on the back of 8.5”x11” stationery. Of the stationery, he says, “These items are important to me, like summons, default notices, or support group meeting lists.”
Silva’s exhibition will be on view in the Incubator Project Space from February 14 to May 3, and Silva will give an artist talk from 6:30 to 7 p.m. at the April 5 reception. He will perform original songs and play bass guitar in the Hampden Gallery Sculpture Garden for the UMass Fine Arts Center Spring Art Walk on Friday, April 19 from 3 to 6 p.m.
