Description: The present exhibition catalogue comprises a multigenerational selection of works by Chicano and Latino artists from southeastern California, all of Mexican origin. The exhibition analyzes the way in which these artists explore the hybrid character of their culture, through five important themes. Likewise, by broadening the perspective of the appreciation of Chicano and Latino art beyond its strictly geographical home, this exhibition highlights the inexorable bonds these artists have with Mexico, and how these ties transcend individual identity and borders.
