SUMMARY:David Adey: Sacrificial Bodies
DESCRIPTION:As the first comprehensive mid-career survey of San Diego artist \, this exhibition traces more than 25 years of a creative practice defined by a persistent exploration of what it means to inhabit a human body in an era of perpetual image culture and accelerating technology.  Curated by Mark Quint of in La Jolla\, the exhibition brings together Adey’s most iconic works alongside rarely seen experiments—revealing an artist who continually adopts emerging technologies only to subject them to intense discipline and constraint. \n\n\n\nAs a full-time professor of Art & Design at Point Loma Nazarene University with a background in graphic design\, Adey’s approach has been described as a hybrid of a mad scientist and engineer. His early work utilized craft punches and laser cutting to dissect advertising and celebrity imagery\, while more recent pieces have incorporated 3D scanning\, custom electronics\, and digitally altered corporeal forms. The results are sculptures that are visually seductive and unsettling\, yet intellectually probing\, hovering between the material and the metaphysical. Across decades of work\, Adey returns persistently to themes of identity\, fragmentation\, transcendence\, and the body’s dual status as sacred vessel and cultural commodity. His sculptures embody the tension of contemporary life: the pull between intimacy and spectacle\, the personal and the universal\, technological precision and human vulnerability. \n\n\n\nOceanside Museum of Art704 Pier View WayOceanside\, CA 92054

SUMMARY:Cecil Beaton’s Fashionable World
DESCRIPTION:Photographer\, fashion illustrator\, Oscar-winning costume designer\, social caricaturist\, and writer Cecil Beaton (1904–1980) was an extraordinary force in the twentieth-century British and American creative scenes. This is the first exhibition dedicated to Beaton’s fashion and portrait photography\, which he elevated into an art form.   \n\n\n\nThis exhibition showcases Beaton at his most triumphant – from shaping the public image of the “Bright Young Things” (a group of exuberant and artistically inclined socialites in 1920s London) to fashion photography for Vogue and other magazines\, his vital role as photographer in World War II\, and his reinvention of royal portraiture for the modern age\, to award-winning costume and set designs for My Fair Lady on stage and screen. Via London\, Paris\, New York\, and Hollywood\, his era-defining photographs captured beauty\, glamour\, and star power in the interwar and early post-war eras. \n\n\n\nCecil Beaton’s Fashionable World features portraits of some of the twentieth century’s most iconic and glamorous figures\, including Marilyn Monroe\, Audrey Hepburn\, Elizabeth Taylor\, and Marlon Brando; Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Margaret; as well as stars of the artistic and literary scenes\, Truman Capote\, Francis Bacon\, and Salvador Dalí. \n\n\n\nThis exhibition is organized by The National Portrait Gallery\, London\, and presented by The San Diego Museum of Art. \n\n\n\nMOPA@SDMA1450 El Prado Balboa Park\, San Diego\, CA
