Mario Ybarra Jr. will present a multi-media installation entitled The Black Squirrel Society for his first exhibition in New York at Lehmann Maupin's 201 Chrystie Street gallery. In Ybarra Jr's artistic practice, he consistently explores the space between what is the norm and taboo in American culture from a particularly Mexican-American perspective. Bordering on the absurd at times, he continues to explore the conflation of social spaces and interactions whether imagined or real.

See you there!
