About this Event
Join us on Saturday, June 13th from 12-1PM for a talk with artist Eugene Rodriguez at the Lancaster Museum of Art and History (MOAH). Gain some insight about Rodriguez’s art practice, influences, and his exhibition Velvet Notes: Conversando con Pedro Guzmán.
About the Exhibition
by Eugene Rodriguez presents a series of vibrant, pop-art inspired short films, sculpture, prints, and paintings that reflect on themes of artistic creativity and agency through a deeply personal lens. Rodriguez’s alter egos presented in these films examine how images, familial bonds, and cultural heritage construct identity and determine who is seen, heard, and remembered. The exhibition debuts his latest film, The Great Masquerade (2026), which discusses art, artifice, commerce, and politics in the creative industries.
