Woman Showing a Book to a Group
title Woman Showing a Book to a Groupdescription Photograph of a woman holding a book up to show a group of four seated women. The woman with the book, which says "Mexico" on the cover, is standing on the right-hand side of the image. She is facing the other women on her right and laughing. The other women, who are all looking at her and smiling, are all dressed in colorful outfits. There is a large wooden shelving unit behind the women that holds only a television. Next to the shelving unit on the right-hand side of the image there is a desk with a white machine on it. There is another television on a cart behind the standing woman. A box that is full of spiral-bound books is resting on a surface in the foreground.artist/creator Unknownsubject Museum Exhibits -- Texas -- Austin -- Photographs.

A Lesson In Civics
title A Lesson In Civicsdescription Casa de la Cultura de Tijuana Paintings Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 01, Item 203) With her project for inSITE94, San Diego artist Jean Lowe created an installation that mirrored much of her previous work as a cunning commentary on an issue relevant to the current times. At the Casa de la Cultura Municipal in Tijuana, Lowe chose to rework the interior of one classroom. Entitled "A Lesson in Civics/Una lección de civismo," the classroom was richly outfitted with elements such as school desks, books, educational charts, and posters created by the artist in painted papier-mâché that distinctly referenced the topic of civics and how we learn to relate to other species. As the artist herself said about the work, she wanted to create an environment that encouraged a rethinking of the already known. --inSITE94 [Title, Date]. InSite Archive. MSS 707.

Esl: Tonguetied
title Esl: Tonguetieddescription Boehm Gallery, Palomar College Drawings and Watercolors Graphic Design and Illustration Paintings Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) The Border Art Workshop/Taller de Arte Fronterizo's project, "ESL: tonguetied/lenguatrabada," dealt with the subject of cultural identity and the difficulties encountered in learning a language other than one's mother tongue. The project specifically referenced the impact of the recently adapted Proposition 187, a 1994 California ballot initiative designed to limit social services, health care, and public education for undocumented workers. At the same time, the project provided a space for responding to the implications of differentiating between "legal" and "illegal" immigrants. The installation consisted of a mock classroom with written questions on all surfaces and blackboard walls where viewers were invited to express their thoughts on the issues. -- inSITE94 This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 02, Item 038) [Title, Date].
