Engaging Latinx Art: Methodological And Pedagogical Approaches

The focus of this Institute will be the ascendancy of the cultural and artistic movement known as “Latinx” Art. The institute will introduce the participants to the history of Latinx art through readings, documents, lectures--and perhaps most importantly--work in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston. This institute proposes to break new ground for attending faculty by including Latinx art at the center of the discussion on the history and criticism of artmaking in the United States and globally.
