- Synopsis
- An exhibition of 18th-century casta painting at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art in 2004 occasioned a Mayday symposium from which the nine essays here emerged. Art and other historians, other scholars, and writers and artists explore the concepts and depictions of race in Mexico across the boundary from colonial to modern that is associated with the painting genre. Their topics include the language, genealogy, and classification of race in colonial Mexico; Moctezuma through the centuries; Hispanic identities in the southwestern US; and reconfiguring race, gender, and Chicano/a identity in film.
