Latinoamérica Presente
Tracing the Hidden Histories of Latina/o Art, Aesthetic, and Expressive Culture in the Global Midwest
This project examines the role of arts and music in advacing colletcive social expression in Chciago, South Bend, Omaha and Columbus. It will utilize various strategies to interpret the unique global Midwest complexities of transnational experiences—migratory processes, bi-national identities, and transnational networks—focusing on ways by which artistic expressions in the visual and musical arts have illuminated and communicated social realities that speak to the Midwest’s becoming global in Latino context.
An exhibit will display June 23-25, 2017 at the Apollon Art Space and a special panel discussion will be held on Friday, June 23, at 6 p.m.
