    VOZ: Selections from the UTSA Art Collection
    (2018-02-08) Almeida, Arturo Infante
    The University of Texas at San Antonio is proud to share Centro de Artes’ dedication to recounting the stories of Latinos and Latinas. Universities, like all places of higher learning, are uniquely positioned to be stewards of history. The 222 works of art in this exhibition were acquired by UTSA over the course of the last three decades. For three hundred years, San Antonio has been a place where different languages, customs and traditions have merged to form a unique cultural history. Like all stories of a particular place and time, the work on these walls is informed by pride, joy and a tenacity that reverberates in the voices that celebrate the Latino experience.
