Honoring ArtCenter’s Latina/e/o/x alumni community, IdentificarX explores the complex and distinct contributions of the school’s alumni to the field of art and design, and their significant cultural impact. Featuring over 100 artists and designers representing the broad spectrum of disciplines at the College, the exhibition provides a thoughtful look at the pathways and strategies that members of the Latina/e/o/x community undertake to become part of the culture making field. Recognizing that the Latina/e/o/x community is not a monolith, the value “x” in the title acts as a placeholder for inclusivity and agency. It holds ground for the multiple and varied places, experiences, memories, histories, genders and races that co-exist through the use of “x.” It is a visual signifier of expansiveness and brings together wide-ranging conversations about identity and diasporas in art and design. | Organized by ArtCenter College of Design, the exhibition was presented across the school’s South Campus galleries, with the Graphic Design section hosted by the HMCT Gallery. |
