Estampas de la Raza, drawn from the collection of the McNay Art Museum in San Antonio, showcases contemporary screenprints and lithographs by Chicanx and Latinx artists living and working in the United States. Gifted to the McNay by San Antonio-based collectors Harriett and Ricardo Romo, the exhibition focuses on themes of identity, memory, and struggle, while celebrating Latinx culture and the collaboration and creativity coming out of print workshops in Texas and California. The exhibition also highlights the important role prints played in the Chicano art movement, and will feature work from the Crocker Art Museum’s permanent collection by members of the Sacramento-based Royal Chicano Air Force (RCAF).
Support for this exhibition is provided by Art Bridges.
