He uses traditional Zapot ec technology of dyes and materials and redefines Zapotec weaving language to create works that communicates contemporary experiences and the comple xity of the Americas today.  Gutiérrez’s expertise is based on a fa mily legacy of treadle loom weaving and ancestral knowledge of his homelan d\, its organic materials\, and their seasonal cycles that result in an unlimited palette of natural colors. He departs from traditional woven m otifs in his compositions\, exploring the boundaries of his own creative e xpression and distinct experiences. Through his practice\, he asks us to r ethink narrow definitions of contemporary art and Indigeneity. While in Za potec there is no word for “artist” as an occupation\, there is a lon g held concept of valuing those who hold wisdom within their community. G utiérrez’s interpretation of ancestral weaving techniques and motifs op ens a new dialogue in the imposed dialectic of art versus craft\, which he sees as serving little purpose in furthering contemporary Indigenous crea tive expression. Breaking with that tradition is where he finds ultimate f reedom as an artist.   An internationally known and exhibited artist \, Gutiérrez has taught materials and color at Harvard University\, and  serves as Fellowships Advisory for the Smithsonian. His work is in the c ollection of LACMA\, Los Angeles County Museum\, the Smithsonian’s Nati onal Museum of the American Indian\, and the Tucson Museum of Art. A sele ction of his dye materials was also documented and added to Harvard Art M useums’ Forbes Pigment Collection\, the world-renowned archive of artist materials. In 2015\, he received the Smithsonian Institution’s Artist i n Leadership fellow\, in 2021 he received the Carolyn Glasoe Bailey Founda tion Art Prize\, and in 2023 he was the finalist for Frieze Art Prize. His work has been covered by ARTnews\, The New York Times\, PBS\, the BBC\, V ogue\, and Artforum.  Gutiérrez’s work will be on view in the exhibit ion that opens at the Kimball on September 25.  \n\n\n\nThis event takes place at the Kimball Arts Center1251 Kearns Blvd\, Park City\, UT 84060 \n \n\n\n\nVisit The Kimball Arts Center\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nHeader Imag e: Photo of Porfirio Gutiérrez.
