Latin American Art, 1960–1985

This exhibition will feature works by female Latin American artists and US-born Chicanas and Latinas, from between 1960 and 1985. Fifteen countries will be represented in the exhibition by 116 artists, with more than 260 works in photography, video, and other experimental mediums. Artworks by the likes of Lygia Pape and Marta Minujín will be displayed alongside lesser-known names such as the Cuban-born abstract artist Zilia Sánchez, and the Argentine mixed-media artist Margarita Paksa. The exhibition is guest curated by Cecilia Fajardo- Hill and Andrea Giunta as part of ‘Pacific Standard Time: LA/LA’.
