We're excited to be just one week away from our first opening reception of 2014! Galería de la Raza is pleased to present "In Reference To" as its inaugural 2014 exhibition, featuring documentary photography work by artist Alejandra Regalado. "In Reference To" explores the experience of Mexican female immigrants across America, and investigates issues of cultural identity and femininity. As a series, this project serves an evolving archive of the Mexican female immigrant experience, and as snapshots of life in the diaspora. "In Reference To" is an ambitious five-part series, which began in 2010 and culminates this year with the goal of creating 1,000 images, or 500 portraits, or women and their objects. Regalado has already completed the New York, Idaho/Oregon, Illinois, and Texas portions of the project, and seeks to culminate the series in California.   The artist will be in attendance at the opening reception next Sat, 2/22. We hope you can join us!
