Curatorial statement:
The purpose of this exhibition is to show our community our development and growth as we identify ourselves with the art we view and produce. Not everyone will identify with being an American, but we can all identify with being in solidarity with one another for the purpose of helping and supporting each other throughout our endeavors and struggles.

What defines you as an American?
What has become of the American dream?
What has become of the American dream?
Through the eyes of various artists, we will find an interpretation of their choices and their environments. When it comes to culture, we have adapted our traditions, transcending them into our art.These artists come from various generations and backgrounds in which they all adapted and altered their ideals as to what they have learned and needed to unlearn while living in the U.S.A.
We will showcase the art but it’s you who determines what each context means and represents to you. Not just as a Latino or Hispanic person, but for all who can identify with the journey each artist goes through to become themselves in this melting pot of various cultures in one destination.
On view May 4 – 28 at Angel City Brewery 216 S Alameda St, Los Angeles
