He has had one-person exhibitions at Centre d?Art Contemporain, Dia Center For The Arts, Centro Galego de Arte Contemporánea, Whitney Museum of American Art, UCLA Hammer Museum, and P.S. 1 Contemporary Art Center. // ... A.H.: The aim of collage is to juxtapose a variety of fragments that have their own rich references to create a new image. Opera functions in a similar way. A writer turns a story with characters and a plot into a working libretto, which in turn is set to music by a composer. A conductor is chosen, as well as a theater, orchestra, singers, chorus, costume designer, set designer, and a director whose function is to construct a unified work from scratch. The resulting production allows us to experience each of the elements assembled together as a whole in real time. So opera is a collective enterprise fusing several media, while collage reflects the concerns of an individual artist working with fragments. Combining disparate parts will always generate both drama and harmony, conflict and desire. Opera is our portrait larger than life. Collage is our portrait of life rearranged and reordered.
