Descripción de la Organización
The U.S. Latinx Art Forum (USLAF) emerged from the two-part scholarly session “Imagining a U.S. Latina/o Art History,” chaired by Adriana Zavala at the 2015 Annual Conference of the College Art Association (CAA) in New York. Central among the issues raised at the session was the ongoing marginalization of U.S. Latinx art within museums, galleries, and cultural institutions as well as in the fields of American and Latin American art history. USLAF forms as a concerted effort to advocate for the field of Latinx art, foster equity and growth, and support its practitioners. USLAF supports the creation of a more equitable art world by championing artists and arts professionals dedicated to Latinx art through research, studio practice, pedagogy, and writing. USLAF generates and supports initiatives that benefit the intergenerational network of our over 450 members and advances the vitality of Latinx art within academia, art institutions, and collections. From 2016-2018, our ... data collection initiatives, which were covered by Hyperallergic and ArtNews, tracked the representation of Latinx art in academic conferences and museum exhibitions. In 2020, with a grant from the Ford Foundation, USLAF established the Mazorca Initiative in order to respond to the impact of COVID-19 and systemic racism on artists of color. The Mazorca Initiative consists of three programs that USLAF members are eligible to apply for: 1) the CHARLA Fund, which supports conversations and other exchanges amongst artists; 2) CHISPA, an artist interview project; and 3) an online art exhibition project (details forthcoming). Each program includes artist stipends and in-kind support from USLAF to promote and archive artists’ projects. By the end of 2021, the Marzorca Initiative will disburse over $20,000 in relief funds to 40 artists and feature a digital archive of Mazorca-supported projects, an online exhibition, and artist interviews. While USLAF recognizes the importance of resisting categories, we affirm the value of creating a forum to support Latinx visual art and culture. We maintain the importance of creating a network for mentorship and professional development to ensure the continued progress and vitality of Latinx art practitioners within academia, exhibition spaces, and beyond. We invite you to join USLAF as a member and become part of our growing community of Latinx art advocates.
