I would like to invite you to visit a group show I am participating in called “Calli: The Art of Xicanx Peoples, “curated by Gilda Posada.
ABOUT: “Calli,” derived from Nahuatl, signifies the essence of home, family, and lineage. The exhibition showcases over 50 artivisits and scholars and honors the stories of Xicanx peoples across California in this temporary “Xicanx home.” Calli layers multiple, intergenerational artistic perspectives, featuring posters from late queer Chicana activist and professor Margaret “Margie” Terrazas Santos’ collection in conversation with contemporary works by Xicanx artists.
