Book Party for Malaquias Mon­toya
Fri­day, Decem­ber 9, 2011, 6pm
East­Side Cul­tural Cen­ter, 2277 Inter­na­tional Blvd, Oakland

Cul­tural scholar and activist Terezita Romo has authored the first extended mono­graph of the life and work of Malaquias Mon­toya, the rev­o­lu­tion­ary print­maker and painter who was one of the great influ­ences of the Chi­cano Arts Move­ment of the 60’s and 70’s. In 2000, Malaquias spent a semes­ter as Vis­it­ing Pro­fes­sor in the Art Depart­ment at the Uni­ver­sity of Notre Dame, in Indi­ana, and he cur­rently holds the title of Vis­it­ing Fel­low in the Insti­tute for Latino Stud­ies at Notre Dame.

Come meet the artist and author at our pub­lic recep­tion and book party where we will host a dia­logue between Mon­toya and Romo. The artist will also have prints on dis­play and for sale, as well as the book.

There will be a Gen­eral Strike in Oak­land Novem­ber 2, 2011.

Free posters will be handed out by artists Chuck Sperry, Chris Shaw, Alexan­dra Fis­cher, and Ron Dono­van to name a few. Posters gra­ciously donated by Moon­al­ice
