SUMMARY:The United States and Mexico: A Powerful Past\, A Shared Future
DESCRIPTION:From the U.S. Embassy in Mexico City\n\n\n\n“The foundation of Art in Embassies (AIE)\, a U.S. Department of State program\, began with an International Council established by the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) in 1953 to exhibit American works of art in U.S. embassies. Building on these efforts and recognizing the importance of art in international cultural outreach\, an AIE office was created by the John F. Kennedy administration in 1963. Since then\, AIE has grown and continues its mission to promote cultural diplomacy through art by way of artist exchanges and programs exhibiting a diverse group of American artists as well as international artists and artists from the host countries.” \n\n\n\n\nLearn MoreClick this box to visit the official Art in Embassies 2022 page and see the exhibit including a 3D digital interactive tour of A Powerful Past\, A Shared Future. \n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom the Mexic-Arte Permanent Collection\n\n\n					\n											\n								\n												\n							\n				\n					\n					\n					\n				\n				\n							\n								\n										\n					Jesus “Cimi” Alvarado\nEsto es un Río\, 2009\nSerigraph\n22″ x 30″				\n								\n							\n						\n							\n				\n					\n					\n					\n				\n				\n							\n								\n										\n					Francisco Mora\nLos Niños Héroes\, 1960\nLinocut\n11.5″ x 8″				\n								\n							\n						\n							\n				\n					\n					\n					\n				\n				\n							\n								\n										\n					Leopoldo Mendez\nMéxico en la Guerra: Los Braceros se van a Estados Unidos\, 1960\nLinocut\n8.5″ x 11.5″				\n								\n							\n											\n							\n											\n									\n\n\n\n\nHighlights\n\n\n					\n											\n											\n							\n							\n				\n					\n					\n					\n				\n				\n							\n								\n										\n					Sylvia Orozco\, Mexic-Arte Museum Director; Arely Morales\, Artist; Maria Rosario Jackson\, Chair of the National Endowment for the Arts; Hope Hernandez Salazar; Mireya Salazar and Elaine Salazar\, President/ CEO\, Ampersand Art Supply.				\n								\n							\n						\n						\n							\n							\n				\n					\n					\n					\n				\n				\n							\n								\n										\n					Artist Angel Cabrales was selected by Mexic-Arte Museum to participate in the exhibition with his work Axihuical (El Paralelo)\, 2021\, Lasercut ceramic tile\, 37 3/4″ x 196 1/4″.

SUMMARY:Creating Encuentros: Changarrito 2012-2024
DESCRIPTION:About \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nApril 12\, 2024 – August 24\, 2024 \n\n\n\nIf you find yourself walking through the streets of Mexico\, you will inevitably encounter a changarrito\, a food cart\, or locally run shop. Changarritos\, enticing with the smell of antojitos\, the persistent beckoning of vendors\, or sheer curiosity\, are difficult to ignore. These carts exist freely\, usually outside of the controls\, supervision\, or instruction of formal institutions. More than just a business\, changarritos are an integral part of Mexican culture\, communities\, and families.  \n\n\n\nIn 2005\, artist Máximo González initiated a Changarrito cart as a possible platform for artists to present their art to the people without having to be accepted by traditional art spaces or official curatorship\, blurring the boundaries between established galleries and tianguis (informal street markets). Changarrito offers opportunities to artists and those interested in purchasing art; either to collect\, use\, or give away to a loved one. More so\, the program creates the possibility to develop art as an encuentro: a moment of connection between the artists and the public\, a moment that is profoundly personal and collective. \n\n\n\nFrom its inception in Mexico City\, the Changarrito has appeared in twenty-two cities\, brought to Austin by Leslie Moody Castro and became active at the Mexic-Arte Museum in 2012. Since the program’s implementation\, dozens of artists have used it to display their art and interact with the public on 5th Street and Congress Avenue. In 2020\, with the rise of Covid\, the Changarrito residency introduced a digital component called changarreando. Now\, more people than ever can learn about and engage with the monthly Changarrito resident artists thanks to the Changarrito art cart residency\, which has resumed its in-person component while continuing with its digital feature. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\nLearn about the opening reception.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nInstallation Images\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPhotos by Chris Caselli \n\n\n\n\nLisa Saldivar\, Sonidos de México\, 2024Audio collected on the streets of MéxicoCommissioned by the Mexic-Arte Museum\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nEssays About Changarrito\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView the exhibition online\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCultureConnect is a mobile tool that Mexic-Arte Museum is utilizing to make exhibitions and artwork accessible to the community. Through CultureConnect\, Mexic-Arte Museum can present curated information about the artwork and give the viewer a chance to explore the artist and artwork in depth! \n\n\n\nThis exhibit includes images of the artworks\, label text\, and essays from professionals and artists.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nView the Virtual Exhibition\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThank You to Our Sponsors!
