Selected Collections:. Selected Bibliography:. On the heels of several important exhibitions throughout the country and abroad, and the completion of his MFA at Stanford University this past Spring, Arcega draws from a wealth of artistic investigations -- many of which wryly deal with episodes of power, tragedy, human folly, and recently, the possibilities of renewal.
Arcega is widely known for his sense of humor in which wordplay and materials take on multiple meanings that affect a variety of responses and understandings. The new work in The Collaspe will feature sculptures based on tent architecture and reclaimed architectural components that become devastated sites.
Arcega meticulously rescues discarded and blemished wood banisters by adding architectural sites into their devastated areas. They are then arranged into a forest-like floor installation alongside a tent structure, which will house a moody projection of mist and random acts of decay and violence. By featuring support structures found inside a home opposite an imagined and somewhat surreal recreational campsite, Arcega dramatizes the conflict between permanence and transitory modes of survival.
In reclaiming these discarded objects, and adding to their broken spaces, Arcega poignantly fosters a sense of renewal and the possibility of rebuilding.

Selected Bibliography:. On view October 30 - December 18, , Crossways debuts a new series in which intense dramatic lighting, dense pattern, and oblique angles emphasize an unstable, somewhat disorienting space that his subjects inhabit both physically and spatially. Williams' paintings have always seamlessly fused his interest in figuration and abstraction, but in this new body of work Williams utilizes abstract patterns as a tool in which his subjects hang in a somewhat helter-skelter balance.
The paintings are simultaneously bright and emotional, with luscious textures that emphasize the months that Williams spends with his models, allowing both pattern and person to emerge out of thickly applied oil paint. In Field Evening a single male figure lies below a tree; his outstretched arm mimics the branches, lifeless and longing. Here, arrows function as both object and pattern, surrounding and pointing at the figure, suggesting a multiplicity of emotions as they team across the painterly surface.
Pattern is always a key element in Williams' work.
