Arte Club
Presented by the Indiana Mexican Latino Artists Network
Arte Club es una plataforma que permite a los artistas definir su latinidad. Latinoamérica incluye más de veinte países, cada uno con distintas tradiciones e historias llevadas con orgullo por sus habitantes. Sin embargo la cultura latina se percibe como homogénea, a pesar que cada latino describe su identidad en maneras tan diversas como la región. La intención de Arte Club es abrir el diálogo sobre la complejidad y multiplicidad de la identidad latina. La exposición exhibe obras por artistas de diferentes nacionalidades y prácticas artísticas, lo que muestran la amplia gama del talento y voces que enriquecen la comunidad latina.
Arte Club es una iniciativa de Indiana Mexican Latino Artists Network y agradece el apoyo de Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation, Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust, Glick Philanthropies, Herbert Simon Family Foundation, e Indy Arts Council. Sus contribuciones han hecho posible la formalización de esta iniciativa. Un agradecimiento especial a Rebecca y Michael Kubacki.
Arte Club provides a stage for artists to define their Latinidad. Latin America is composed of more than twenty countries, each with immense pride for their unique heritage, distinct traditions, and vibrant histories. Too often, though, Latino culture is perceived as a monolith, but individual Latinos respond to questions concerning the meaning of their identity in ways as varied as the region itself. Arte Club is intended to start the conversation about the complexity and multiplicity of Latino identity. This exhibition showcases artists of varying nationalities and artistic practice, and the works shown here demonstrate the wide range of talent and voices that make the Latino community so rich.
Arte Club is produced by the Indiana Mexican Latino Artists Network and is grateful for the support of Allen Whitehill Clowes Charitable Foundation, Nina Mason Pulliam Charitable Trust, Glick Philanthropies, Herbert Simon Family Foundation, and the Indy Arts Council. Their contributions have made possible the formalization of this initiative. Special thanks to Rebecca and Michael Kubacki.
