“Chicano/a/x Prints and Graphics: Selections from the Hispanic Research Center’s Collection, 1980–2010”
Through June 29, 2025

“Chicano/a/x Prints and Graphics: Selections from the Hispanic Research Center’s Collection, 1980–2010” showcases a partnership between ASU’s Hispanic Research Center (HRC) and ASU Art Museum. It brings together works from the 1980s to the 2010s drawn from the HRC’s dynamic collection. This year-long exhibition pays homage to the ideals of the Chicano Movement of the 1960s and 70s, and expands upon them using prints as the medium.

Presented in two parts, this unique exhibition underscores how Chicano/a/x artists have used prints and graphics to build community, engage with social concerns, and interrogate shifting notions of political and cultural identity over time.”

The exhibition “Spiraling, Twisting, Unraveling: Explorations in Pattern and Form” features 25 artists showcasing contemporary craft from the museum’s collection. The artists use delicate lines, trailing threads and spirals to explore themes related to the natural world, eternity, life cycles, space and time across different cultures. The exhibition includes a diverse range of tactile and visually striking objects, such as ceramics, stoneware, fiber and woodwork, each pushing the boundaries of their chosen medium. These artworks aim to spark conversations and narratives that are an integral part of our everyday lives.
