Art Bridging Boundaries: Central America and the United States.
Goldman, Shifra M.
This paper describes the organization, Artists Call, as well as several slides shown during the presentation to illustrate "visual solidarity" between artists of the United States and Central America. In 1983, artists in 27 U.S. cities as well as Paris and Mexico City organized Artists Call against U.S. Intervention in Central America. Numerous exhibitions, film showings, art lectures, and other activities have taken place across the United States from 1983 to the present. The slides shown at the conference were divided into several categories: (1) works by North American artists living in California participating in events organized by Artists Call, and works outside Artists Call; (2) artworks by Central Americans in California; (3) murals by North Americans, Latinos, and Latin Americans in Nicaragua, 1983 through 1987; and (4) Artists Call's massive (10,000) Postcard Exhibition and Mail-In Project of 1985.
