Riassunto:

The first comprehensive examination of work by the Sacramento-based collective known as the Royal Chicano Air Force.

Featuring vibrantly colored, politically charged imagery, this stunning volume will be the first comprehensive examination of work by the Sacramento-based collective known as the Royal Chicano Air Force. The group produced lively posters and murals for educational, cultural, and political activities at the height of the Chicano Movement. Its art and activism influenced many artists and historians with images reflecting Latin American and Chicanx history, symbols of protest and union support, and celebrations of cultural touchstones such as lowriders, Cinco de Mayo, Day of the Dead, and other community events. With vivid illustrations and accessible text by scholars in the field contextualizing the Royal Chicano Air Force’s legacy within Chicanx history, political activism, and American art, this striking book will help bring this heavily influential group and movement to life. It also accompanies an upcoming exhibition of the same name at the Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento, California.
