XICAN@ DEMIURGE
An Immediate Survey

January 2 — 29, 2007
Fresno City Hall

The work featured in "Xican@ Demiurge: An Immediate Survey" is an attempt by it's curators to reposition Chicanismo/a as a viable genre in which any artist influenced by the culture of the Latino/a community can participate. The twenty Los Angeles artists collected here (affectionately referred to as "Los In-betweens") are a dynamic group whose work initiates a compelling and alter-Native dialog that is as varied and expressive as the city of L.A. itself.

Xican@ Demiurge features the work of: Rolo Castillo. Alexis Disselkoen, Alexandra Gonzales, Andres Janacua, Dave Kawano, Alma Mota, Leora Olivas, Jacobo Ramirez, RETNA, Albert Reyes, Guadelupe Rodriguez, Sandy Rodriguez, Sonia Romero, Shizu Saldamando, Lorenzo Hurtado Segovia, Yesenia Soliz, Armando H. Torres, Melissa "Melly" Trochez, Jaime "GERMS" Zacarias, and Brenda Zamora.

Curated by Richard S. Duardo, Francesco X. Siqueiros
and Armando H. Torres.
