DESCRIPTION:Join us for the opening reception of "Coming Home: Prints by Juan R. 
 Fuentes."\n\nThe exhibit “Coming Home” signifies a homecoming of sorts 
 for master printmaker Juan R. Fuentes, who grew up in Watsonville, before 
 moving to the Bay Area and becoming an internationally recognized 
 artist.\n\nThe show’s gorgeous prints – featuring women of color & 
 laborers – stand as the first solo exhibit by Mr. Fuentes in Santa Cruz 
 County. \n\nThe exhibit runs through August 26.\n\nMr. Fuentes is currently 
 the director of Misión Gráfica at the Mission Cultural Center for the 
 Latino Arts in San Francisco. He helped define the Chicano Poster Movement 
 in the 1970s, creating strikingly powerful posters documenting 
 political/social concerns in California and calling for action on 
 international issues, such as the wars in Nicaragua and El Salvador. 
 \n\nHis work can be found in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian 
 and the San Francisco Mexican Museum.\n\nIn 2006 he co-curated the exhibit 
 “Chicano Encounters,” a historical survey of Chicano Political Art that 
 exhibited alongside Cheech Marin’s “Chicano Visions” at San 
 Francisco’s de Young Muesum. Mr. Fuentes also held an artist-in-residence 
 position at the de Young’s Kimball Gallery during that time. \n\n\n
