Xicana/o/x Time and Space
Curated by Dr. Thomas A. Carrasco
September 6 - October 18, 2023

​Opening and Performance, Wednesday, September 6th 4:00 - 6:00 pm
Featuring Chicano Secret Service (Elias Serna, Susan Carrasco and Thomas Carrasco), Sculpture by Joelle Mendoza

Santa Barbara, CA -- The Atkinson Gallery at Santa Barbara City College is pleased to present Xicana/o/x Time and Space, curated by Dr. Thomas A. Carrasco, on view September 6 - October 18, 2023

This exhibition will present a timeline through various forms of Chicana/o/x Rhetoric (painting, text, film, photography and performance) with an overview of Mesoamerican and Chicana/o cultural traditions. Working at the intersections of rhetoric, literature and Chicana/o Studies, this multimedia, exhibit/performance will explore and present how Chicana/o concepts of time and culture can be read through a Chicana/o lens in ways to nurture and create a historical consciousness.

The Mayans were obsessed with time and so are we…. “the Present has a Past.”

​
This exhibition is presented as part of the 7th SUR:biennial, taking place during the Fall of 2023 at sixteen venues throughout Southern California. The SUR.biennial, for more than a decade, has sought to explore the complex notions of globalization and exchange that take place in the ambiguous geographical, cultural, and artistic borderlands between Southern California and the broader South. Each independently curated exhibition showcases recent and newly commissioned works by local and international artists influenced, in one way or another, by the cultures and artistic traditions of Mexico, Central and South America and/or the Caribbean, including their many diasporas.
