The Mexican Cultural Institute of San Antonio, Texas and Spain Arts & Culture are pleased to present LATINO/US Cotidiano. Literally meaning everyday life, Cotidiano is a dynamic look at the rapidly changing nature of the Latino Experience in America. The Hispanic population in the U.S. has reached the 50 million mark, making the Latino community the largest minoriry in the country for the first time. One out of every six Americans is now of Hispanic origin, an impressive social transformation with enormous political, economic, and cultural consecuences. Outdated stereotypes, racial profiles, and past cultural archetypes no longer accurately reflect a nation enriched by a growing and diverse population. To better understand this culturally shifting phenomenon, SPAIN arts & culture commissioned Claudi Carreras one of the foremost experts on Iberoamerican Latino photography, to reached and gather the strongest photographic voices working today on issues of Latino identity. For LATINO/US Cotidiano, Carreras selected established and emerging photographers of Latino decent who embrace and also excel at their craft: Carlos Alvarez Montero, Sol Aramendi, Katrina Marcelle dAutremont, Calé, Ricardo Cases, Livia Corona, Héctor Mata, Carmen Miranda, Dulce Pinzon Susana Raab,Stefan Ruiz, and Gihan Tubbeh. — en Instituto Cultural de México, San Antonio, TX.
