We checked out the recommendation of the lovely woman we met the night before. \u00a0We saw a display of chicano art. Chicano<\/a> is a fairly political word that was new to Chris, but familiar to me as someone who did a degree in Spanish and Portuguese studies. The most basic translation would be ‘Mexican American’, but it has connotations of pride in and political identity surrounding being Mexican American as well. Chicano art seemed to have several common themes including vibrant colors, Catholic imagery, skulls and surrealism.
