A Votar
title A Votardescription Intaglio on paper, 18 in. x 24 in. The New Immigration: Ten Etchings Portfolio by Self Help Graphics, Los Angeles, CA and Galería Sin Fronteras, Austin, TX. Crowds of people are on either side of a barbed wire with bound hands. The people are small and look up to massive voting boxes for the USA and Mexico, with large hands contributing their votes. In 1988, Sister Karen Boccalero, founder of Self Help Graphics in Los Angeles, and Dr. Gilberto Cárdenas, founder of Galería Sin Fronteras in Austin, co-organized this portfolio of ten etchings by five artists. The prints, sponsored by Self Help Graphics and co-published by Galería Sin Fronteras, were produced at Taller Romero in Mexico City by printer Renato Esquivel Romero. According to Cárdenas, this series pays “homage to the perseverance and dignity of the new Latino immigrants as they struggle with the transition into American society.” He also said that they are a reminder of “the role that immigration plays in enriching the economic vitality of our society and the contributions that the immigrants and their children will have in making American society a better community for tomorrow—a community ‘sin fronteras.’” Each of the five selected artists presented a distinctive perspective on politics, immigration, and the border.artist/creator Limón, Leosubject Mexico Immigration Immigrants United States Buildings Voting People Rope Barbed Wire Hands Hand in art Intaglio Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -

The Last Dance: Detail Of "Hand"
title The Last Dance: Detail Of "Hand"description Known for his kinetic, conceptual, and highly imaginative works, New York artist Dennis Oppenheim created an installation entitled "The Last Dance/La última danza" for a gallery space at the Children's Museum of San Diego. The piece consisted of four pairs of cacti forms spinning together in a disjointed dance to a cacophony of music emitted from a number of 1940s radios, a record player, and a bass drum randomly beaten by a mechanized pedal. The seeming chaos of the disharmonious music and the spinning cacti figures - that both strive for closeness, yet at the same time present harm to each other - suggests relationship, especially between two cultures, where elements come together, sometimes clash, and always intertwine. --inSITE94 Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) The New Children's Museum (American museum) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 03, Item 249) [Title, Date].
