Saints, Superheroes, And the Demonized

Saints, Superheroes, And The Demonized

This portfolio was organized for North Texas SGCI 2019 by Marco Sanchez, an MFA Printmaking Grad Student at Edinboro University in Pennsylvania, but originally from El Paso/Juarez.  The reception was at the University of Dallas, the evening of the first day of SGCI, Wednesday, March 6.






SAINTS, SUPERHEROES, AND THE DEMONIZED
Location: University of Dallas, Haggerty Lane, Irving, TX 75062. Upper Gallery, Painting/Printmaking Building
Organizer: Marco Sanchez, MFA candidate, Edinboro University of Pennsylvania

This exchange is meant to serve as a platform for printmakers to become reactionaries and revolutionaries who take a stand against the xenophobia, racism, and disregard of common decency lacking by the current presidential administration. This exchange allows printmakers to represent the people in their communities who over the past two years have been marginalized or demonized. By refuting the ill-informed rhetoric of some politicians, it allows artists to elevate these “Saints, Superheroes, and Demons” to the pedestal in which they belong.
