Phantom Sightings: Art after the Chicano Movement is the first comprehensive consideration of Chicano art in almost two decades and the largest exhibition of cutting-edge Chicano art ever presented at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. Traditionally described as work created by Americans of Mexican descent Chicano art first emerged during the vibrant Chicano rights movement of the late 1960s and early 1970s. This catalog and exhibition explore the experimental tendencies within today's Chicano art which is oriented less toward painting and polemical assertion and more toward conceptual art performance film photography and media-based art as well as "stealthy" artistic interventions in urban spaces. Three essays by Rita Gonzalez Howard N. Fox and Chon A. Noriega explore the topic in depth. With more than two hundred color illustrations twenty-five individual artist portfolios and a wryly subversive chronology of significant moments in Chicano cultural history Phantom Sightings: Art after the Chicano Movement charts new territory and provides a conceptual sampling of Chicano art today.
