Boom Oaxaca: Conversaciones de Campo a Campo Palo Alto Art Center, Palo Alto

September 16-December 10, 2023 Grounded in the unique cultures of both California and Oaxaca, Mexico, the work in Boom Oaxaca promotes self-representation, addressing important and timely themes of indigeneity and food sovereignity. Organized by Fresno’s Arte Américas, the exhibition spotlights newly commissioned works by internationally recognized artists Narsiso Martinez (Oaxacan-born, based in Long Beach, CA) and Tlacolulokos (collective, born and based in Tlacolula, Oaxaca), developed through community interviews in California’s Central Valley and reflect the experiences of many people with cultural connections to California and Oaxaca. Join us for Friday Night At the Art Center on Sept 22 from 6- 8 pm at the Palo Alto Art Center and features specialty cocktails, Oaxacan food trucks, performances, and art-making activities.
