Art Highlight: Shizu Saldamando’s “Martin’s Cincuentañera” (2018) 🌊 Born to parents of Japanese American and Mexican American heritage, artist @shizutattoo focuses on depicting important figures of Los Angeles’ Latinx, activist, queer, and punk communities. In this work, Saldamando portrays queer punk singer Martin Crudo surrounded in lush blue waves, recalling Yemaya, Afrodiasporic goddess of the sea, and Hokusai’s “The Great Wave off Kanagawa.” The title of the work is a layered reference to the Latin American, Mexican, and Caribbean tradition of quinceañeras. In this work, Saldamando highlights Crudo’s milestone of a “cincuentañera” to celebrate the 50-year-old icon’s passage into elderhood. This milestone is historically rare for those in the LGBTQIA+ community due to systemic issues and the impact of the HIV/AIDS pandemic. This work is not currently on view but keep an eye out for changes in our galleries: https://bit.ly/4dyB5w5 💡 Shizu Saldamando, Martin's Cincuentañera, 2018, oil and mixed media on panel, 48 in. × 72 in. × 1 5/8 in.

“The Enchanted Party After François Boucher, The Enchanted Home” by @yvettemayorga is based on a 1992 photograph of a joint birthday party with the artist’s older sister in Zacatecas, Mexico. Swipe → to see the digital collage Mayorga created using the photo before beginning the painting. Now on view in “Think Pink,” an experimental space in the Contemporary Galleries, the piece draws on references to French artist François Boucher, interrupting art history and exploring the meaning of belonging. 💡 ICYMI: Crystal Bridges acquired this artwork in 2023 #YvetteMayorga #CrystalBridges
