Xican–a.o.x. Body features conceptual, experimental, and pioneering works from the late 1960s to the present using a diverse range of media that enlighten our understanding of Xicanx art and culture. This online component of the exhibition presents five single channel videos that connect and amplify these creative impulses. Artists Liz Cohen, Frances Salomé España, Justin Favela, Patssi Valdez, and José Villalobos address ideas around performance, car culture and body politics in unique and intergenerational ways.
