Venegas and Venegas
José Luis Venegas began his career in Tijuana in the early 1970’s, becoming an important part of a developing upper-middle class. His work has influenced his daughter’s aesthetic from the beginning. She uses a social documentary photographer’s strategies to approach people that could be her father’s clients, and transforms what she sees into images that function in the realm of fine art. The exhibition explores her new body of work, entitled San Pedro Garza García, along with her past series, Maria Elvia de Hank, and her first major series, The Most Beautiful Brides of Baja California.
