This exhibitionis important for the same reasons. This exhibit is a way to highlight the work of Chicanx and Latinx artists who are left out of the history of printmaking within the United States, despite their impact on printmaking and on society or their communities in general being significant.
In this preview, Ramos delved into the ties that Chicanx art has had to social movements. The impact of Chicanx graphic art continues to be seen in much of today’s Chicanx art which has often been used to convey social and political messages relevant to Chicanx and Latinx communities. As discussed by some of the featured speakers, Chicanx graphic art practices are rooted in community as Chicanx artists are speaking out about issues that are important to their communities through their art in order to help create positive change for their communities. Some of the main shifts in Chicanx art have been changes in technology which has led to expansion in the way artists can create as well as spread their work and messages.
