Editorial Reviews

Product Description

With more than 600 full-color images, this book celebrates the art organizations that have promoted Mexican American art and served as art education centers for their communities. Their efforts have produced a significant body of collectible works that inspire through their artistry. Vividly showcasing many of these works on generously sized pages, this coffee-table book is the fourth volume in the series that began with the award-winning Contemporary Chicana and Chicano Art: Artists, Works, Culture, and Education.


From the Inside Flap

Praise for previous volumes: "The absolute bible of contemporary Chicano art." —Cheech Marín

". . . will leave the most skeptical and jaded art lovers impressed." —San Antonio Current

"The work of the artists is world class. This book, which is also world class, will help bring attention to their art." —Rudolfo Anaya

"This set represents a major attempt to understand and provide access to Chicano art." —Library Journal

". . . a triumph for the historiography of Chicana and Chicano visual art. . . . supersedes anything that has come before in the quality of its reproductions and breadth of its coverage of individual artists" —Víctor Alejandro Sorell, Art Journal

"The whole project is 21st-century scholarship and pedagogy at its best. It brings attention to a stream of visual culture that is rapidly becoming a river." —National Art Education Association News

By J. C. Castro (Arizona, USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Got my copy of this book today and was very impressed with the quality of the images of the art pieces that were published in this volume. This book will make a great addition to anybody's art book collection.

I love Chican@/Mexican American Art, and I am happy that the Bilingual Press has been publishing books containing representations of what Contemporary Chican@/Mexican American artists are doing nowadays.

Be sure to also check out the following books from the Bilingual Press publisher:

- Chicano Art For Our Millennium : Collected Works From The Arizona State University Community
- Contemporary Chicana And Chicano Art : Artists, Works, Culture, And Education
