La Bloga: ANNOUNCING THE FIRST PRINT EDITION OF CHICAN@ ART MAGAZINE

“The first quarterly print edition of Chican@ Art Magazine is scheduled for June 2006. The featured artist is Jaime “GERMS” Zacarias. It also features an article on “Project MASA”, an annual outer space themed Chicano art exihibition in San Antonio, Texas, curated by Luis Valderas. Other articles include the art of Gloria Osuna Perez and Carlota Espinoza, Gilbert “MAGU” Lujon – Cultural Vehicles & “Keep On Crossin’.” Regular features will include reviews, events, media and culture. The mission of Chican@ Art Magazine is to disseminate information about Chican@ Art , the artists, the history and the Movement itself. Chica@na Art will be–and is–the most important school of American art in the 21st century. If the artists do not make art, then the museum curators, The board members who run art organizations, the critics, the gallery owners, the academics who study and write about us, would be without jobs. My goal as publisher is to let the artists take destiny into their own hands. (Artwork shown above: “El Muerto” by Jaime “GERMS” Zacarias for Self-Help Graphics’ 2005 Day of the Dead.)
