Rio Yañez is back on the pod to talk about two recent projects he’s been working on. The first is a current exhibition at the Thacher Gallery at the University of San Francisco titled Studio Misión: The Artist Studio as Medium by René Yañez. The focus of the exhibition is the world and creative process of Rio’s father René Yañez during his final years from 2016 to 2018. The second is this year’s Día de Los Muertos exhibition at SOMARTS titled City of Souls. Curated by both Rio and Carolina Quintanilla, this year’s exhibition features work to honor and manifest Rio’s father and founding curator Rene Yañez’s vision for his final Día de Los Muertos exhibition, titled City of Souls, a reference to his 2001 exhibition City of Miracles.
