EL ULTIMO GRITO Mico Multiuse Stool, 2006 Magis SpA MoMA Collection
El Ultimo Grito: New Installation Jan. 23–March 16, 2014 Rice Gallery
E
l Ultimo Grito, a design studio run by artists Rosario Hurtado and Roberto Feo, created a new site-specific installation at Rice Gallery. Based in London, the husband-and-wife team are winners of the 2012 London Design Medal and internationally known for creating an eclectic range of objects and installations that defy easy
categorization. For the Rice installation, the artists expanded upon their approach to design and construction in which they rely on their hands, bodies and readily available, inexpensive materials to “free” them from traditional methods of production. Gallery admission is free. For hours and parking information, see ricegallery.org or call 713-348-6069.
