Ron Rigge Meet & Greet
April 27, 2024 | 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm
FREE!
The Firehouse Arts Center is excited to welcome photographer Ron Rigge to the Pleasanton Art League (PAL) Wall from April to June 2024. Primarily an architectural study, this exhibition focuses on the structures of two Spanish missions. The establishment of the 22 Spanish missions in the late 18th century is an important part of Californian history. Today, some of these missions still retain the essence of their original state. One can view rooms where daily tasks such as weaving and cooking took place. Restored bedrooms and dining areas seem as if they are in use today. There is also a strong feel of sacred space, and if one visits early in the morning it is easy to imagine being present in the year 1780. The images in this presentation are from the missions LaPurisima Concepcion, San Antonio de Padua, and San Miguel. On view until June 1, this exhibition includes two archival silver gelatin photographs and a collection of digital prints using archival materials by Rigge.
Find out more about this exhibit and come meet the artist at the Firehouse Arts Center on Saturday, April 27th from 1-3pm.
