Collidoscope: de la Torre Brothers by Einar De La Torre
The prismatic work of the famed Mexican-American brothers merges religious iconography and German Expressionism with Mexican vernacular arts and pre-Columbian art This zestful publication showcases the Mexican de la Torre brothers’—Einar (born 1963) and Jamex (born 1960)—particular vision of the Latino experience and American culture. Wielding a combination of humor and critical earnestness, the brothers continuously explore this vision through their mixed media works in a chameleonic-kaleidoscopic process that culminates in a palimpsest of images and meanings. Published in conjunction with the traveling exhibition, Collidoscope advances the scholarship concerning Chicana/o/x and Latina/o/x artists in an effort to challenge the art historical record, asserting that “Chicano art is American art.”| SKU | Unavailable |
