This Week: "The Art of Organizing in Latinx Milwaukee" Featured in Gallery Night MKE

UWM Archives’ Latine Heritage Month pop-up exhibit, “The Art of Organizing in Latinx Milwaukee,” is featured in Gallery Night MKE tomorrow, Friday, October 18, from 4-7 p.m.! Stop by our exhibit space and explore the visual culture of protest through art from Voces de la Frontera and earlier generations of Latinx activists. 

As exhibit selections featured here show, the 1960s, 70s, and 80s were witness to increasing visibility and recognition for local Latinx artists, who spearheaded a variety of innovative arts programming initiatives. Organizations like Latino Arts continue this work today, and artists represented in the Union Art Gallery’s “Colors of Our Communidad” exhibition, also featured in Gallery Night, testify to the persistence of this vital tradition of artistic achievement in our present.

How did no one before Hiccup ever look at dragons and didn't instantly think friend shaped.

Only one day left until the Lunar New Year, who should be the last dragon I draw?

Come on out this Friday and see some of my newest art at the Eagle Knit Building, a great new space down in Walker's Point. I've got around 10 paintings up alongside a bunch of other great artists and I'm looking forward to taking part in gallery night for the first time since my show last summer. We'll also be open Saturday from 12-4 so come on down and check out some new paintings!

Designs

Lunar and Earth have arrived like an explosion 💥

These are the official designs for these two horrible people (within this AU, of course)

Lunar

Lunar is considered the first son of Creator. He appeared at the same time as the first star appeared in the dark and cold space. His glow was so pure to Creator that he claimed him as his son. A creation of good.

Lunar, called in this AU "Star" is the god of magic and the protector of all stars in the universe. Like Geminis, Taurus, Nebula and millions of other stars.

Star retains his personality as currently shown in his program, combined with a piece of Castor's personality (LAES)

Star really hates Killcode's children.

Earth

Earth was Creator's second daughter. She was born from the explosion of two planets creating not only the planet Earth, the explosion created Earth.

Earth, Called in this AU "Fauna" the goddess of all life on planet earth. Of all living animals and all living plants. She can also control the weather! But she usually leaves that job to Star and Life (Sun).

Fauna keeps her personality as shown in her show. She's just a little more... Evil.
