Free entry
May 6 through October 25
8 am - 5 pm
UCSD Park & Market Gallery, 1100 Market Street

Step into the surreal world of visionary Mexican sculptor José Sacal (1944–2018) in this powerful new exhibition to experience emotionally charged, politically resonant sculptures that reimagine cultural and historical figures—from Einstein and Gandhi to Frida Kahlo and Don Quixote—through Sacal’s distinctive abstract lens. Known for his expressive bronze and ceramic works, Sacal challenged traditional forms to explore themes of identity, justice, and the human condition. This binational cultural initiative exemplifies “art as borderless education,” celebrating the powerful role of the arts in fostering dialogue, civic reflection, and lifelong learning between the U.S. and Mexico. Spanning more than six decades of Sacal’s career, the exhibition pushes viewers to question what it means to live with dignity in a complex world.
