Ana Mendieta: Elemental
RIT City Art Space is exhibiting a rare showing of films by late pioneering artist Ana Mendieta, whose work spanned photography, film, video, sculpture, performative action, earth-body works, and more; along with Raquel Cecilia Mendieta’s documentary film Nature Inside, narrated by Ana Mendieta. The show runs Nov. 4 to Feb. 19.
