Order, Chaos and the Space Between!  I’ll finally be perusing this exhibit at the Phoenix Art Museum.  It consists of contemporary cutting edge works by Latin American artists who question the nature of the creative process.  The art installation is from the Diane and Bruce Halle Collection who began collecting art from Latin America in 1995.  I’m intrigued by this piece titled “Lover” by Arturo Herrera.  The exhibit runs through May 5, 2013 in the Steele Gallery www.phxart.org
