The Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA) presents “Home — So Different, So Appealing: Art from the Americas since 1957”, an exhibition on the universal concept of home. Offering an extraordinary look at one of the world’s most basic social concepts, this exhibition explores the differences and affinities within artworks relative to immigration and political repression, dislocation and diaspora, and personal memory and utopian ideals.

 

“Home – So Different, So Appealing” features approximately 100 artworks by 40 Latino and Latin American artists. This expansive exhibition will include painting, sculpture, installation, performance, photography, film/video, and public sculpture by U.S. artists from the largest historic Latino groups – of Mexican, Puerto Rican, and Cuban origin – plus artists from Argentina, Colombia, Guatemala, Mexico, Venezuela, and Uruguay, among other countries.
