In this podcast we use art as a platform to examine stories about Mexico’s past and present. Each episode examines some famous works of art through the perspectives of a Mexican national, a Chicano, and a White American. Through these “new voices" we explore and rethink many of the stories we’ve been told about Mexico – and the United States – and its relevance to American contemporary life. Our podcast is co-hosted and produced by Ross Chambless, with insight and commentary from Susan Vogel ...

Life in Utah can be hard for Latinos where the majority of the population is White. Latinos in Utah sometimes experience subtle and overt racism and discrimination. At the same time, Mexican Americans can also feel like outsiders when they travel to Mexico. In this episode we examine this dichotomy, and also explore the work of Linda Vallejo, a Chi…

But the fashion, the tattoos, the Old English graffiti writing style, the lowriders, and the music of “cholo culture” is popular beyond the negative stigma and stereotypes.

Artistic expression has remained central to exploring and defining the Chicano identity since the beginnings of the Chicano Movement of the late 1960s. In many ways, being Chicano is about standing up for social equality, resisting discrimination, honoring one's Latino/a and indigenous heritage, and defying negative portrayals of Mexican-American c…

While urban Mexicans enjoyed new affluence and growth, farmers and indigenous peoples struggled to make ends meet.

In 1932, David Siqueiros was asked to paint a romantic vision of Mexico on a wall in Los Angeles. He instead flipped the metaphorical bird at American imperialism and its history of subjugating indigenous peoples. That ultimately got him deported, and his mural was whitewashed from public view - until recently. The reemergence of América Tropical, …

Mexican Muralist Diego Rivera’s most controversial painting was first commissioned by, and later destroyed by the Rockefellers in New York City in the early 1930s.

The Mexican Muralist Movement began as an effort to unite Mexico after the divisive Revolution and create a new national identity. One of the most notable muralists was José Clemente Orozco whose paintings were vivid and intense.

The Mexican Revolution was complicated, confusing and tragic. The fighting began when the 35-year-long regime of Porfirio Díaz failed to reach a solution for presidential succession.
