The Contemporary Austin is presenting an exhibition of paintings from the last twenty years by groundbreaking multidisciplinary artist Eamon Ore-Giron. On view at the Jones Center on Congress Avenue from March 3 to August 20, 2023, Competing with Lightning / Rivalizando con el relámpago examines the trajectory of Ore-Giron’s paintings, and explores the complex layering of identities, histories, and artistic legacies that have influenced his art.
