FALL 2009
| Exhibit Info Cardinal Points/Puntos Cardinales includes 56 works: photographs, prints, paintings, and mixed-media. The exhibit text panels and 28-page catalog are bilingual and discuss the development of contemporary Latino and Latin American art over the last few decades. The Latino and Latin American worlds feature many ethnic groups, cultures, histories, and intellectual viewpoints. The title phrase, cardinal points, refers to compass directions to illustrate how Latino and Latin American artists have “mapped” or found their way on a journey to examined their own distinctive viewpoints. The art works are extremely diverse in approach, subject matter, and media; therefore, the exhibit is divided into four “points” of access to facilitate contemplation and comparison: The Figure as Symbol Nature, Seen and Transformed Mapping the Real Imaginary Narratives (stories) |
