About the Item

"Corazón De Aztlán," a vibrant print by Chicano artist Frank Romero, encapsulates the complex interplay of cultural identity, love, and urban life. The artwork showcases a striking heart motif, layered with abstract shapes and colors that evoke the spirit of Aztlán, the mythical ancestral home of the Aztec people. Among the bold designs, a subtly hidden image of a car emerges, symbolizing the fusion of traditional heritage with modernity and the everyday experiences of Chicano life in urban settings. This duality reflects the artist's exploration of cultural pride, community, and the journey of self-discovery, making it a poignant representation of contemporary Chicano art. Throughout his 50-year career as an artist, Frank Romero has been a dedicated member of the Los Angeles arts community. As a member of the 1970s Chicano art collective, Los Four, Romero and fellow artists Carlos Almaraz, Beto de la Rocha and Gilbert Lujan, helped to define and promote the new awareness of La Raza through murals, publications and exhibitions. Los Four's historic 1974 exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art was the country's first show of Chicano art at a major art institution.
