Liminal Takes, Mujeres Latinoamericanas en el Arte

Curated by Frida Cano*

Neither here, nor there. Can culture be contained in a notion? Liminal Takes utilizes installation, video, drawing, sewing, and other media to navigate "in-between" spaces of culture and identity, challenging historic conceptions of "Latina art" with contemporary alternatives.

ARTISTS: Ana Belen Cantoni: Peru / Colombia, Maria Burr: Chile, Paula Cobo: Chile, Maria Ezcurra: Argentina / Mexico, Jimena Mendoza: Mexico, Gabriela Pena Alvarez: Peru, Paulina Velazquez Solis: Costa Rica / Mexico, Neli Ruzic + Marie-Christine Camus: Croatia / Mexico + France / Mexico

The Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts thanks Trumer Pils and Gracias Madre for their generous donations.

*Frida Cano is a Fundacion/Coleccion Jumex scholar and recipient of the Program Beca para Estudios en el Extranjero 2010-2011 del Fondo Nacional para la Cultura y las Artes.
