Oakland, CA: Pro Arts is pleased to present Sonrisas Jóvenes Que Hacen, Felices A Corazones Viejos, an exhibition of new work by photographer Dan Fenstermacher. Sonrisas Jóvenes Que Hacen, Felices A Corazones Viejos will be on view from August 25 to September 18 in the PROJECT installation window at Pro Arts’ downtown Oakland gallery.
The portraits in Sonrisas Jóvenes Que Hacen, Felices A Corazones Viejos were created while Fenstermacher was on an artist residency in Costa Rica. Fenstermacher spent two months working with residents of Hogar Para Ancianos, a senior citizen home in the town of San Ramon, to take intimate portraits he then shared with them at the conclusion of his residency. The portraits were also exhibited at the San Ramon Museum.
The large scale works on view at Pro Arts were printed by the INSIDE OUT project. This global initiative, by the anonymous artist JR, encourages “wheat pastings” as a platform for people to share their stories and transform messages of personal identity into works of public art. Nearly 200,000 people from more than 112 countries and territories have participated. #insideoutproject
