Art that is innovative and aggressive in its approach is critical to developing a contemporary
aesthetic that is representative of the 21st Century Xican@ artist.
The cultural climate influencing this particular group today is not the same as the one that triggered “El
Movimiento Chicano” of the 1960’s. In light of this, the work featured in “Xican@ Demiurge: An Immediate Survey” is an attempt by it’s curators to reposition “Xicanism@” as a viable genre in which any artist influenced by our community can participate. The twenty-one artists collected here (affectionately referred to as “Los Inbetweens”) are a dynamic group whose work, which is as varied and expressive as the city of Los Angeles, initiates a compelling and alter-Native dialog.
