Our interview of RIO YANEZ, the amazing curator. As many of you know, his dad RENE YANEZ was #1 Latino Artist, not only in SF, but rest of Bay Area. RIO is now lovingly taking his place.
Now in its 23rd year, SOMArts’ annual Día de Los Muertos exhibition returns with “To Love and Be Loved in Return: Día de Los Muertos 2022”!
Founded by beloved San Francisco artist and curator René Yañez, Día de Los Muertos at SOMArts merges traditional altars with contemporary installations, continuing to be a multigenerational gathering of rememberence while affirming the importance of arts & culture in shaping our worlds.
This year’s show exemplifies how the love between us and our dead continue to help us navigate a world troubled by injustice. Also, this exhibition asserts that our relationship with our ancestors and with each other is essential to our humanity and livelihood.
