In this group exhibition, contemporary artists representing two generations of Chicana feminist artists will exhibit an array of work that reflects pride in their heritage as well as patter n s of racial inequality in the U nited States for Mexican Americans. Exhibiting prints, paintings and installation, these artists open dialogues about sexism, racism, homophobia, and poverty as interlinked issues for wo men of Mexican descent in the US. These Chicana artist-activists participated in or grew out of the Chicano movimiento of the 1960s and 70s which sought to define a cultural and political identity for Americans of Mexican descent. The first generation is represented by Ester Hernandez and the second by Favianna Rodriguez and Melanie Cervantes.
