Cultural Inquiry How does ART influence the Hispanic, Latino, and Chicano culture today?
Where to start? • Do Minnesota schools’ offer art within their curriculum? If so, do the classes provide a variety of cultural emphasis throughout the classes? • To Emerson Spanish Immersion School (K-8)! I interviewed the art teacher, Mrs. Karen Moe-Cane and viewed the classroom environment! There are cultural national standards for art, but no state standards for cultural emphasis However, the art in her room is chosen to illustrate urban life!!
Art influences from the ancient tribes • Mythology • Nature • Gods
What does it all mean?!?!?!? • Hispanic, Latino, and Chicano people have build their communities through art and language to connect their homes and lives to their heritage. • Their communities are surrounded by murals illustrating their traditions • Their language is proudly displayed on murals, restaurants, and bulletin boards • Most important it shows identity!!!
El Fandango: Heritage Dance • It was a play/dance event where they presented the dances of different countries within Mexico • Authentic Dress and Dance • The play describe the importance of the past to show the importance of the culture
Hispanic, Latino, and Chicano Community’s in the Twin Cities The ART on the buildings, restaurants, and billboards show the importance of cultural identity and language
