During the Chicano Movement (1965–1980), individuals of Mexican descent fought for civil rights and cultural reclamation. In solidarity with the Movement, LMU alumni Armando Durón ‘76 and Mary Salinas Durón ‘75 began collecting Chicano/a/x art as a means to preserve cultural identities and historical narratives. This exhibition, drawn from The Durón Family Collection, offers a distinct journey through Chicanx art from the mid-1900s to the present.
