About the Event
The Mextasy Circus of Desmadres:
Naranja County Edition
February 3-March 2, 2024
Curated by William "Memo" Nericcio and Guillermo Nericcio Garcia, the traveling exhibition emerged from the pages of Nericcio's acclaimed 2007 book, Text]-Mex:
Seductive Hallucinations of the Mexican in America.
Beyond showcasing racist artifacts on both sides of the border, Mextasy introduces the concept of "xicanosmotic" art and serves as more than a mere representation of ecstasy for Mexico.The multi-media archival exhibition boldly confronts and redefines stereotypes of Mexicans pervasive in American mass culture through a dynamic representation of Chicano identity and resilience.
