Joe Bravo was the first Artist that I was ever exposed to. I lived on the very same block in Wilmington as the mural in this video. In 1976, when the mural was being painted, I admired it from afar. For years, I would read, I would sketch, and I would do my homework underneath the mural.

Later, as an adult and as a fellow artist, I became friends with Joe through the L.A. Xicano Art Scene. For many years, it never occurred to me that he was the very same Joe Bravo whose work I admired back in elementary school!

So, for the first episode of Xicano Chronicles, I'm featuring Los Angeles’ own Joe Bravo. Not only known for his Tortilla Artwork but also an artist who has been exhibited and featured domestically and internationally in print and in television.

With my multi-year video project, the Xicano Chronicles, I hope to introduce the next generation to important Chicanx voices. I want to highlight Chicanx Artists, Writers, Curators, and Collectors from the LA art scene through short videos.
