Sandwiched in between summer and fall, the Galer\u00eda declared Sept. 24 through Nov. 21 its \u201canniversary season.\u201d This celebratory season is peppered with public events and concerts, commemorative exhibits, series of lectures and forums with Latino artists in a variety of fields ranging from literature, to digital and visual arts, and even the release of the gallery\u2019s 40th Anniversary print portfolio. Their custom portfolio includes works by internationally recognized artists such as Rupert Garcia, Enrique Chagoya, Julio Cesar Morales, Ana Teresa Fernandez and Shizu Saldamando.<\/p>\n<p>The Galer\u00eda was born from a legacy of art activism that began in Latin America and has continued to play a key role in the development of Chicano arts and culture in San Francisco. \u201cThis place started because Latino artists didn\u2019t have a place to exhibit their work,\u201d said Carolina Ponce de Le\u00f3n, executive director of La Galer\u00eda for the past 12 years. \u201cIt was by Latino artists for Latino artists. It wasn\u2019t even on the radar for the mainstream.\u201d Before the western art world caught Frida-fever, for example, the Galer\u00eda was hosting exhibits featuring and honoring Frida Kahlo as far back as 1978, and then again in 1987. \u201cThose two Frida exhibitions put Frida on the map here,\u201d said Ponce de Le\u00f3n. Two years ago San Francisco\u2019s Museum of Modern Art even dedicated a portion of their Frida Kahlo exhibit to the Galer\u00eda, acknowledging the salient role that it played in San Francisco, bringing recognition and respect to the works of Latino artists.<\/p>\n<p>The Galer\u00eda\u2019s 40th anniversary exhibit offers a combination of contemporary works alongside some of the major highlights of the gallery\u2019s history. Featured photography works range from vibrant and sardonic portraits of the contemporary \u201cchola\u201d to emotive portraits of lowrider culture from the 1980\u2019s. Over the years the Galer\u00eda has given equal attention to both artists who are academically trained and those who are self-taught. \u201cFrom street art to fine art, the Galer\u00eda has never worried about barriers between low or high art,\u201d said Ponce de Le\u00f3n. To illustrate her point Ponce de Le\u00f3n described the rich iconography of prison art, which incorporates religious and Aztec symbols within modern political and social contexts. La Galer\u00eda has broken the boundaries of what was once deemed \u201cart\u201d by celebrating Latino artistic expression without reservations. \u201cWhatever brings a richness,\u201d said Ponce de Le\u00f3n.<\/p>\n<p>It was the Galer\u00eda\u2019s founders, Rene Ya\u00f1ez and Ralph Maradiaga, back in the 1970\u2019s which began the Mission\u2019s Dia de los Muertos procession now celebrated by thousands every year. \u201cIn 1972 Ralph Maradiaga and Rene Ya\u00f1ez went down to Mexico and observed the celebration of Dia de los Muertos as it is in a community ritual, traditionally celebrated,\u201d explained Ponce de Le\u00f3n. \u201cThey began inviting artists [to San Francisco] to create inspired altars, already breaking away from the tradition. They began expanding altar creation as an art form within itself, expanding the format and creating a contemporary Chicano art form.\u201d While the Galer\u00eda is no longer involved in the production of the annual Dia de los Muertos procession, the procession still passes right outside the Galer\u00eda, harkening to its historical roots.<\/p>\n<p>The Galer\u00eda has not only pioneered the recognition of Latino and Chicano art but it has also long been a mecca for artists promoting a dialogue of tolerance and social justice. In 1995 the Galer\u00eda became the first Latino art gallery in the country to host a queer Latino exhibit. It did not shy away from showcasing controversial artistic expression even when the gallery\u2019s public mural was vandalized in 1997 and then again in 2000. \u201cThe Galer\u00eda has always been a safe haven for people to explore and represent alternative lifestyles, a sanctuary for people to deal with issues that may not be accepted outside the community \u2014 to generate dialogue,\u201d said Ponce de Le\u00f3n. \u201cLatino families can have a place to discuss things that might be more difficult for them. It creates a space for tolerance.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Such an ideology permeates the work of Chicana artist Melanie Cervantes, who contributed a serigraph poster to the gallery\u2019s anniversary exhibit. \u201cIt was a poster that was created after Oscar Grant, a young black man, was murder by white BART police officer Johannes Mehserle,\u201d Cervantes said, describing her piece. \u201cThe intention was to draw connections between the way this state-funded police officer and the Israeli Defense Forces are government-funded and yet target and terrorize marginalized communities in Oakland and Gaza. I believe I can help translate the struggles, dreams and vision of indigenous [communities] and communities of color, poor and marginalized people into beautiful graphic work that is accessible to those people who inspire the work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>With its range of community and youth education programs, the Galer\u00eda has gone beyond the role of a historic art gallery and has in fact created a community of local artists and educators. The Galer\u00eda has fostered a multi-tiered mentorship infrastructure for developing artists in the community, even helping students acquire scholarships to art programs. Generations of Galer\u00eda artists that have built substantial careers return to mentor the new generation. Ponce de Le\u00f3n noted how this is community aspect differentiates the Galer\u00eda from the other art galleries that she has worked at in New York City and in her native Colombia. \u201cThe Galer\u00eda belongs to many, many different people, people that have passed through these walls and remained connected to them. Here there is always a return,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_6409\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6409\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a rel=\"attachment wp-att-6409\" href=\"https:\/\/eltecolote.org\/content\/2010\/11\/galeria-de-la-raza-provides-haven-for-generations-of-latino-artists\/ws_celeb3_3\/\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-6409\" title=\"Art Ana Teresa Fernandez and Photo Leigh Cuen\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/eltecolote.org\/content\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/11\/ws_celeb3_3.jpg?resize=600%2C400&#038;quality=89&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"400\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-6409\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"> Galeria de la Raza celebrates artists that are both academically trained and self-taught. <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>This lineage has contributed to the rise of the Mission\u2019s next generation of artists, such as Ana Fernandez, who contributed a painting to the Galer\u00eda\u2019s anniversary exhibit. \u201cGaler\u00eda was the first space in San Francisco that exhibited my work. They gave me my first taste of truly believing I was an artist, or could really be one,\u201d said Fernandez. \u201cI have had the honor of meeting some of my heroes and working\/collaborating with these incredible artists due to the community feel the Galer\u00eda provides. It is different in the sense that it feels like home. There\u2019s a familiarity that makes me see and transform the space with no limitations.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But even with the leaps and bounds that organizations like the Galer\u00eda have made in furthering Chicano\/Latino art, spaces like the Galer\u00eda have not lost their crucial relevance. \u201cI am not afforded the same opportunities that my peers of similar experience are,\u201d Cervantes said of her struggle to achieve equal treatment in the art world. \u201cHow many National Raza\/Latina Museums do we have? Once we have a plethora that exists then maybe the question about the Galer\u00eda\u2019s importance will be less relevant. But that is not the case right now. Now it is a vital space for artists in the Raza community,\u201d said Cervantes.<\/p>\n<p>Ponce de Le\u00f3n said that especially with the current state of the nation\u2019s politics and the flaring up of anti-immigration sentiment, the Galer\u00eda plays a crucial role by giving a voice to a community that has often been demonized. \u201cArtists speak to issues that affect their community, global issues that need speaking to \u2014 immigration, labor rights, the environment, homophobia. A new generation of artists is still maintaining a certain legacy of Chicano protest art, speaking out for the community on issues that are important to us,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Fernandez fervently agreed that the Galer\u00eda is still relevant, even vital to both the contemporary art world and to the community of the Mission. \u201cIt is one the most important, palpable meccas for Latinos in the art world today,\u201d said Fernandez. \u201cAnd it is one of the most decadent living\/breathing story tellers for Chicano art history.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This year marks the 40th anniversary of the Mission\u2019s own Galer\u00eda de la Raza located at the corner of 24th and Bryant Streets.
