Compelling survey of Xicanx art that has shaped visual culture over
the last 50 years. Xican-a.o.x. Body centres the political and
creative resistance of Xicanx artists from 1968 to the present. The
publication presents new histories of Xicanx art, illustrating how
artists foreground the Brown body to explore, expand, and
complicate conceptions linked to Chicanx, Latinx and Xicanx
experiences. The publication offers new insights into more than 50
years of Xicanx art, examining influential works by some 70 artists
who highlight the Brown body as a site of resistance and who have
created artistic communities that push against systemic racism and
the exclusionary practices of mainstream art institutions. Thematic
essays by renowned scholars address the ways in which Xicanx art
lies at the intersection of the politics of identity, race and
class, and interrogate questions of “high” and “low”
culture.
