The UALR Gallery Program presents a series of exhibitions in
collaboration with the Arkansas/Mexico 2010 Celebration. The year
2010 marks two historic events in the history of Mexico - the 200th
anniversary of the independence and establishment of the Mexican State
in 1810 and the 100th anniversary of the 1910 Revolution to overthrow
the dictator Porfirio Diaz.
El Grito (The Cry for Independence)
Gallery I and II – August 16 – October 10, 2010
This exhibition features contemporary artists with ties to the
Mexican-American experience. Many of these artists deal with issues
of identity in a social-political context. Immigration has become a
poignant issue that often evokes a polemic discourse. Artists are not
shying away from this conversation and many of the artworks featured
in this exhibition deal with notions of borders and boundaries.
