Spanish Officer, 18th Century
title Spanish Officer, 18th Centurydescription Pen and ink on paper, 27.5 in. x 22.5in. In the 18th Century, the Spanish military attire began to change from the conquistador helmet and armor to an imitation of the French uniform. José Cisneros (1910-2009) has been described as a leading historical illustrator of the Southwest. While he was a painter, wood carver, writer and muralist, his primary focus was recording the history of the Southwest border region through his illustrations. Born in Villa Ocampo, Mexico, Cisneros eventually moved to Juarez with his family in 1925 where he obtained a school passport to attend the Lydia Patterson Institute in El Paso, Texas. While enrolled in a painting class, he discovered during one of the lessons that he was color blind. Two years later, he was forced to quit school to help financially support his family. He procured a position at El Paso’s White House Department Store, where he designed displays and began to draw on Poster Board. He introduced himself to artist Tom Lea, which led to an invitation for Cisneros to exhibit his work at the El Paso Public Library in 1938. His work was so popular that his exhibit was extended for two weeks, and he was eventually exhibited in Juarez. Later, he was invited to illustrate many books and printing projects through a long-term collaboration with Carl Hertzog, the famous typographer, book designer, and publisher. During this time, he designed the coat of arms for the city of Juarez, and eventually the seal for The University of Texas at El Paso. Among his many honors are the Americanism Award given to him by the Daughters of the American Revolution; he was knighted by Pope John Paul II in 1990, and he was given the Order of Civil Merit by King Juan Carlos I of Spain in 1991. In 2001, he received the National Humanities Medal presented by President George W. Bush. José Cisneros remained a lifelong resident of El Paso, Texas until his death on November 14, 2009.artist/creator Cisneros, Josésubject Borderlands Frontera Horses Animals in art Uniforms Spanish military Pen and ink drawings Drawings Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
Freeway Wars
title Freeway Warsdescription Serigraph on paper, 39.75 in. x 46 in. Chicano artist Frank Romero has explored numerous subjects in his art, especially the car culture of Los Angeles. He portrays classic cars, trucks, lowriders, and muscle cars. Romero is also known for depicting car crashes on freeways and shootings from cars, as seen in this print. Rivals shoot at each other from their cars, while speeding recklessly around a curve in the freeway. Frank Romero was born in 1941 in East Los Angeles, California; he attended Otis College of Art and California State University. Romero began painting when he was five years old. During the height of the Chicano Movement for civil rights in the early 1970s, Romero identified himself as a Chicano. He began working with three other Chicano artists in what was known as Los Four. The art collective used murals, graffiti, and street theater to protest America’s military involvement in Vietnam and Southeast Asia. His most famous artwork, The Death of Rubén Salazar (1986), documents the killing of Chicano journalist Rubén Salazar. He was fatally struck by a canister of tear gas shot into the Silver Dollar Bar on August 29, 1970, by LA County Sheriffs after a rally against the Vietnam War. “I grew up in East Los Angeles, and we always had problems and feared the sheriff’s department because their policy was to come down hard on minorities,” says Romero. Commenting on his use of bright, bold colors in his art, “The part of me that’s Mexican or Latino, I think of Mexicans, like hot vibrant colors. You see that in the way the houses are painted in Mexico and East LA.” Romero has been a dedicated member of the Chicano art community of Los Angeles for forty years.artist/creator Romero, Franksubject Borderlands Frontera Guns Violence California--Los Angeles Cars Automobiles Screen prints Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
Tamalada
title Tamaladadescription Color lithograph on paper, 25.5” x 32.75” Chicana artist Carmen Lomas Garza was raised in Kingsville, Texas, which is located near the Mexico – United States border and the Gulf of Mexico. She created a series of works that recall her life growing up with her family in the small border town in South Texas. In a tamalada, families gather to make large batches of tamales during the Christmas season. The entire family, adults and children alike, organize an assembly line to produce tamales, which are filled with different carnes (meats) such as pork, beef, or chicken; sometimes beans or even fruit. Note the framed reproduction of the Last Supper on the wall. Garza uses these scenes of family life to educate mainstream America about the Mexican American traditions that are passed on from one generation to the next. This popular lithograph was acquired by the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago and the Smithsonian Museum of American Art in Washington, D.C.artist/creator Garza, Carmen Lomassubject Families Borderlands Frontera Food Food in art Culture Heritage Tamales Traditions Manners and customs Color lithographs Lithographs Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
