TPP y Constructo Presentan: AT2026 - Cuarto intermedio de Admin Torres

 Admin Torres ha sido una de las artistas mas importantes para Trailer Park Proyects. Fue una de las primeras artistas que conoci y de quien presente su trabajo en todas mis exhibiciones. Ademas de ser una de las mejores pintoras de su generacion es una de las mejores dibujantes a su vez. El dominio que tiene de la figura humana es obsesivo y las variaciones y mutaciones que se desarrollan de ese conocimiento hacen de su obra una creativa con un estilo diferente que la ha hecho sobresalir desde que estaba cursaba en la Escuela de Artes Plasticas. 

Nos complace anunciar su mas reciente trabajo que sera presentado en Constructo titulado AT2026 - Cuarte Intermedio. Torres presenta su nuevo cuerpo de trabajo incluyendo pintura, dibujos, fotografia, escultura, instalacion, orfebreria y serigrafia con sus caracteristicos temas como el amor, sensualidad, erotismo y la muerte. Una muestra super completa en la que presenta su dominio de los diferentes medios que trabajo para ella.

Esta exhibicion nos demuestra porque Admin es de las artistas mas queridas y respetadas dentro de la escena del arte y porque ha logrado obtener este respeto de todos, la honestidad y sinceridad en su trabajo, porque no pinta para decorar sino para trasmitir un mensaje fuerte y honesto sobre su realidad y la realidad que a muchos nos rodea.

La serigrafia titulada Sin Victoria con algunas variaciones de titulos, es de 2 colores edicion limitada a 25 ejemplares. La grafica fue impresa en el Taller La Serigrafica por Oscar Melendez-Rivera. La misma estara para la venta en $40 en Constructo o TPP por DM.

La exhibicion estara abierta al publico por cita (@Trailerparkproj) y para Martes de Galeria en Santurce de 6pm-11pm

TPP y Constructo presentan ET2026 de Emanuel Torres

Después de 7 años sin exhibir en Puerto Rico, el artista Emanuel Torres presenta su nueva exhibición titulada ET2026 donde estará presentando sus trabajos recientes que ha estado produciendo desde el 2019. 

Torres egresado de la UPR con especialización en Teatro, Performance, Video e instalación, Pintura y Filosofia ha estado trabajando en muestras internacionales con la exhibición individual Fractured Shadows en el 2020 y Surrounded by Water en el 2022 en Latchkey Gallery en New York y su exhibición individual mas reciente Absence of Light en David Klein Gallery en Detroit, Michigan en 2025.

Su ultima exhibición individual en Puerto Rico fue en el Museo de Arte y Diseño de Miramar (MadMi) en el 2019 titulada Rio en la mano pero sentia la necesidad de mostrar en Puerto Rico y el proyecto TPP/Constructo le da la oportunidad de exhibir sin restricciones pues el proyecto es curado por el artista mismo.

El artista quien es conocido por su domino del lenguaje abstracto tomando las riendas del genero que en Puerto Rico ha sido llevado por Luis Hernandez Cruz, Olga Albizu, Carmelo Fontanez y Julio Suarez entre otros algunos quienes son sus mentores y amigos.

La apertura sera el 3 de marzo en Constructo como parte de los eventos de martes de galeria de 6pm a 10pm y estaremos dando talleres para familias durante los 3 meses de duración de la exhibición y el cierre esta pautado para el 5 de mayo.

Proyecto: EC2025 de Eduardo Cabrer en Constructo

 Para el primer artista del proyecto se selecciono al artista plastico Eduardo Cabrer quien presentara sus nuevos trabajos de abstracciones geometricas. Cabrer quien es un artista muy prolifero y que explora diferentes medios y estilos en su pintura decidio presentar este cuerpo de trabajo que nos lleva a la epoca de pop art donde nos transporta a la epoca de finales de los 60 y principios de los 70 donde ese movimiento tuvo un gran boom en la escena del arte internacional y de Puerto Rico. 

Una epoca donde la Galeria Colibri de Luigi Marosini presento trabajos de esta indole de los maestros Domingo Garcia, Domingo Lopez, Luis Hernandez Cruz, Julio Rosado del Valle, Jose Luis Rochet, Lorenzo Homar, Emilio Sanchez, Omar Rayo, Antonio Frasconi, Marcos Yrizarry, John Balossi, Lilliana Porter, Avilio Cajigas, Carlos Irizarry, Robert Goodnough, Eli Barreto, Agustin Fernandez, Luis Camnitzer, Rogelio Polesello, Edival Ramosa, Manuel Facal y otros mientras artistas como Paul Camacho, Victor Vasarely, Donald Judd, Carl Andre, Robert Morris, Sol LeWitt, Frank Stella presentaban sus trabajos en la escena del arte en NYC y a nivel internacional. 

Cabrer presento un cuerpo de mas de 20 obras las cuales hablaban entre si con un diseno de sala magistral que logro la critica favorable, ventas y un grupo concurrido de publico en general durante los 3 meses de la exhibicion.

Entre otras cosas el musico de jazz Eduardo Zayaz amenizo las exhibiciones amenizando con su orquesta durante los Martes de Galeria en Santurce. Tuvimos presente una exotic cocktail bar que preparo tragos high end para los asistentes y tambien contamos con el auspicio de productos de Chocolate Cortes, Jappique, Tortillas Dona Lola, Medalla, Magna, Cerveza H y Ron del Barrilito.

Tambien se crearon Carteles Serigraficos de la exhibicion edicion limitada de 40 impresos por La Serigrafica los cuales estaran a la venta en $40.

La exhibicion fue todo un exito y preparo el tono para lo que son los Martes de Galeria en Santurce todos los primeros martes de mes.

Gracias mil y los esperamos.

After meeting Angel Borroto's work for the first time at Amor/Fuego Gallery, where I got to meet a a few of the artists I work with today and some that became really good friends with as well including Armig Santos, Kivan Quinones and Saki Sacarello whom I've known from before. I also saw Borroto's work a El Cuadrado Gris and just knew he was more than just an up and comer he was a force to be reckon with for the next 60 years.

He had a show at the Modulo de Mejoramiento Comunitario (MCC) in Rio Piedras and was impressed with his work but most of all his dedication and work ethic. I took it upon me to promote his solo show and went on to sell around 5 pieces of that exhibition. 

My job is to promote and sell art and thats what I do, artists either don't know how to sell or simply don't like the part of selling their work. That's when I came in and we started a business relationship that has extended to his inclusion in 3 exhibitions in less than 2 years at Trailer Park Proyetcs. Generation Next at El Schomburg in Chicago, Pintura Contemporanea de PfknR which led up to Suenos Brujos his first solo show with TTP, a pop-up show at Publica that was originally set up to be up for 10 days and it was extended to almost 20 days. Thanks to Omar Obdulio and his gallery 2Bleo who hosted the show and helped with the logistics of the space, very grateful for Omar's help and support throughout the years.

The exhibition design was stunning and the way the exhibition flowed and told a story was really something I am very proud of. With a group effort between Angel, Omar and myself we had to make some changes in site but they worked out perfectly. This is a show set up Im extremely proud of.

Opening was great a lot of big collectors came to see his show including Ignacio Cortes, Otto Reyes, Eduardo Rodriguez and the late John Belk, also the late art critic Manuel Alvarez Lezama both of whom were very dear friends and supporters of my projects. We sold a few pieces but was really happy to sell to 2 young up and coming collectors. It's always great to sell to the young people who you know make a big sacrifice to purchase and collect art. 

The exhibition opened on July the 1st, 2025 and closed unofficially on the 10th of July. It was extended till the 20th of July. 

Here are some photos of the opening night and of some the works exhibited:

USA Clown Flag print by Alexis Figueroa

When you hang out with creative people, artistas and people that are always uncovering the government on going gaslighting of 125 years and propaganda and you actually see a small part of what's happening behind the political curtain you get ideas and sometimes they are cool enough you want to actually do it. 

On this try after the current regime in the USA is clowning and doing stuff that will compromise the USA forever, I came up a simple design that would reflect the current state of the White House and all their corrupt goons in power. So I designed this clown flag to have a visual representation of what the USA is at its current state and how every other country in the world sees them.

Its 50 states led by clown in office ones racist and not good people and the others are just another type of clown that just go along and are not fighting back with enough to power to make the circus stop. Coming from the colony of Puerto Rico and not having representation and not being able to vote yet having an owner makes it worse plus the Stockholm syndrome within my country's politicians is absolute mind-blowing and insane.

This is another one of the small print we are doing for fun and to promote art with the younger generation that likes fun art to talk about and have a political statement without the negative connotations that having a political artwork on your walls can have.

Antonio Martorell found it hilarious and got one for his personal collection. This is me delivering it to him in his Ponce studio. I am honored that such a political artist that has done so much for our arts and culture has one in his collection. It's incredible to me that its my first and only work of art to date.

El Filosofo del Rap print by Francis Fernandez

Because all work and no play made Jack a dull boy, we sometimes like to have fun and do stuff that is not so serious and we can just lean back and laugh out loud. 

Although this is a Trailer Park Proyects commissioned print, it is not part of the fine art prints series we have been producing since we started. 

As a big Vico-C fan who grew up listening to his music and having every single album he has ever released, I decided to brainstorm with my friend Francis Fernandez to make an artwork to honor him. We came up with this print idea of adding Vico-C marble bust to the group of busts of all great philosophers throughout the history of the world. 

Vico-C is know as el filosofo del rap because of his deep conscience lyrics and his longevity as an artist staying relevant and at the top of the game even in his 50s. He still is regarded as one of the best by everyone and he is not just a top rapper he is a legendary icon who help start the rap and reggaeton genre which has become a world wide phenomenon.

Vico whom is currently living in Orlando, FL has had a rough life and he became a teen artist for his ability to rap and create a unique sound that was appealing to the masses and the younger crowd. He became sensation with his underground tapes with songs like El Vikingo, Estaba en Coma, Soy de la Calle and other that help him get a record deal with Prime Records along with DJ Negro as his producer and DJ. When they released La Recta Final back in the mid 80s when I was in grade school it became huge hit making him a superstar. Along with Brewley MC, Ruben DJ, Lisa M, Wilfred y la ganga and others they paved the way for what we know as Reggaeton.

Hailing from Las Acacias in Puerta De Tierra, Luis Armando Lozada grew up in a low income housing project where he befriended and grew up with people in need and doing anything they could to survive which sometimes was not the best paths to follow. As a kid being a kid with peer pressure all around him he succumbed to drugs and became an addict which led to some legal problems and also some criminal activity. He had an accident that led him down a downward spiral of drug abuse and alcoholism from which he recovered and is still sober to this day.

He became a born again evangelical Christian and retired for a short period of time to compose his life and prioritizing in his wife Sonia and his children. In 1999 he returned to the music with an album titled Aquel que habia muerto, which shaked the rap/reggaeton scene in Puerto Rico. As usual his work is always pushing for equality and of social problems that help us understand how society works in favor of a little and against most of us. 

I am grateful for Vico and proud to be a fan, although I don't really love sacra music, he is my exception because he has always been preaching about social equality and teaching us about life. Sometimes I have issues because after all he did, now he is judging lifestyles and saying no one else should do what he did or go through that. I feel it's everyone chooses the path they follow and learn from that just like he did. Still his believes never betrayed his raw style and the religious push is minimum in his music just a mention here and there and his delivery and word managing didn't suffer at all. 

Vico is an example of perseverance and talent that was helped and guided even when he had hit rock bottom. He is an example that everyone needs mentors to help them in life and guide them become the best version of themselves.
