Host Daniel Chacón sits down with Dr. Gabriela Baeza Ventura, director and publisher of Arte Público Press—widely recognized as the nation's leading publisher of U.S. Latinx literature.Their conversation begins on the U.S.–Mexico border, tracing Dr. Ventura's upbringing between Ciudad Juárez and El Paso, and quickly expands into a deeper exploration of how literary worlds are built, sustained, and preserved. She shares the unexpected path that led her into publishing—from a graduate research fellowship to discovering a passion for editing through a stack of “damaged” books—and how that moment evolved into a lifelong commitment to amplifying Latino voices.Dr. Ventura reflects on the mentorship and vision of Arte Público founder Nicolás Kanellos, offering insight into the challenges and responsibilities of running a nonprofit press dedicated to cultural preservation. The discussion highlights the press's mission to recover and elevate U.S. Hispanic literary heritage, bridging gaps between diasporic communities and their countries of origin while ensuring these works are recognized as part of the broader American canon.

En este episodio, Jorge Diego Etienne conversa con el artista y gestor cultural Marco Treviño, en una charla íntima y profunda que aborda los dilemas contemporáneos de tener una práctica creativa en el norte de México. Desde su experiencia formativa en India y su paso por el CEDIM, hasta sus colaboraciones con espacios como Lugar Común, las Artes Monterrey y el Museo MARCO, Marco traza una línea clara entre lo personal y lo profesional, entre la pasión por el arte y los momentos de cuestionamiento profundo sobre su identidad creativa.Marco comparte cómo sus múltiples facetas —artista, gestor, padre, clase mediero y "persona dulce de Cumbres Altas"— se entrelazan en una práctica que abraza tanto la materialidad del arte como la crítica institucional. Este episodio es una exploración sobre lo que significa sostener una carrera creativa fuera de los centros tradicionales, sobre cómo el arte puede ser conversación, crítica, pedagogía y autoexploración.Escucha este episodio si estás:• Cuestionando tu identidad profesional como creativo• Explorando la relación entre arte y gestión cultural• Buscando nuevas formas de hacer obra fuera de los formatos clásicos• Interesado en el arte contemporáneo en Monterrey y el norte de México• Pensando en cómo conectar pedagogía, comunidad y práctica artísticaMarco Treviño es un artista visual originario de Monterrey cuya práctica híbrida navega entre la producción artística y la gestión cultural. Con formación en Artes Visuales por el CEDIM, su trayectoria abarca desde experiencias internacionales como estudiante en India, hasta su participación en iniciativas clave de la escena local como Lugar Común, La Compañía, las Artes Monterrey y el Museo MARCO. Su obra articula dispositivos escultóricos, instalaciones y objetos tipográficos que exploran la fragilidad del lenguaje, la crítica institucional y la relación entre imagen y texto. Actualmente desarrolla el proyecto Lip Sync, una serie que será presentada en la Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros en Ciudad de México.Puedes seguir a Marco Treviño en Instagram@marcotrevino_@proyectoparalelomxShow Notes y Links relacionados a este episodioUn consejo: Tengan cuidado si los campos profesionales aprietan demasiado.

On Tuesday's show: What will HISD do now that no new bond money is coming? The district's state-appointed board of managers has been mulling over options to pivot after voters this month rejected a massive bond proposal for school upgrades. The board also heard an earful from parents last week about what motivated that rejection. We talk it over with with Houston Public Media's Adam Zuvanich.Also this hour: We learn how indigenous groups are resurrecting their people's ancient names for geographic places, including one tribal group's name for what is now Houston. We talk with two members of the Atakapa-Ishak Nation and learn what their people once called our city.And we reflect on the history of Houston's Arte Público Press, the oldest publisher dedicated to Latino literature in the United States, with its founder and incoming leader.

El arte público tiene el poder de transformar vidas y más si se trata de las vidas de estudiantes ávidos por aprender dentro de una universidad. Así es como la Universidad de Houston se preocupa por que sus alumnos tengan acceso a instalaciones increíbles de artistas de todas partes del mundo como parte de sus inmediaciones habituales, para así inspirarlos dentro de un ambiente artístico y creativo, sin importar la carrera que estén estudiando. Si quieren entender más acerca de cómo logra una universidad esta misión, no se pueden perder la plática que tuvimos con María Gaztambide, director ejecutiva y curadora del Public Art of the University of Houston, acerca de su incansable labor de buscar la intersección entre el arte, la tecnología, y el ámbito público.María nació en San Juan, Puerto Rico y fue muy interesante también el conocer cómo vive una mujer puertorriqueña su biculturalidad y cómo ha influido su sangre latina en su vida personal y profesional.María fue directora asociada del Centro Internacional de Arte de las Américas del Museo de Fine Arts por más de diez años. Ahí participó en exposiciones muy importantes como Contesting Modernity: Informalism in Venezuela, Contingent Beauty: Contermporary Art from Latin America y también Intersecting Modernities: Latin American Art from the Brilllembourg Capriles Collection.Además, fue curadora y profesora en la Universidad de Tulane, así como también trabajó para el Smithsonian en Washington, al igual que en Nueva York y Puerto Rico.María ha estado enfocada en imagen y tecnologías digitales en las artes visuales y publica regularmente acerca de arte moderno y contemporáneo, además de ser autora del libro El Techo de la Ballena, Retro Modernity in Venezuela.Hoy nos platica también de la nueva instalación, “Folly” del artista cubano americano, Jorge Pardo y todo lo que hay detrás de traer a la Universidad de Houston una instalación de este calibre.Disfruten de la conversación que tuvimos con María y si les gustó lo que escucharon aquí, denle follow y suscríbanse en cualquier plataforma que estén escuchando y compártanlo con sus amigas.PUBLIC ART U OF HLibro: El Techo de la Ballena Amazonnstagram @ciudadhpodcast @ana_beat @yomarianablog

La Concejalía de Bienestar Social del Ayuntamiento de Rincón de la Victoria junto a la Asociación Azul Violeta han organizado una serie de actividades que se celebrarán durante el mes noviembre con motivo de la conmemoración del Día internacional de la eliminación de la violencia contra la mujer, 25N. La segunda teniente de alcalde y concejala de Bienestar Social y Elena Aguilar (Cs), ha explicado que en primer lugar presentaremos el libro `Violencia machista e Internet. Nuevos agentes sociales en la perpetuación del patriarcado´ en el que han participado la psicóloga y especialista en violencia machista, Angélica Cuenca, la doctora en Filología y profesora, Pilar Iglesias y la doctora de Arte Público y presidenta de la Asociación Azul Violeta, Inmaculada López. El libro, que ha sido financiado por el Instituto Andaluz de la Mujer (IAM), se presentará el próximo viernes 12 de noviembre y contará con la presencia de algunas de las escritoras como Inmaculada López, quien ha adelantado que “el contenido del libro es el resultado de seis meses de formación en institutos, asociaciones y centros de adultos sobre temas relacionados con la violencia machista en las provincias de Granada, Almería y Málaga”. Durante la celebración del acto, que se llevará a cabo en la Casa Fuerte Bezmiliana de Rincón de la Victoria a las 19:00 horas, “el público asistente podrá adquirir el libro sin coste alguno, y se donarán ejemplares a las Bibliotecas Públicas Municipales de Rincón de la Victoria”, indica Aguilar. Por otro lado, se celebrará el 15 de noviembre a las 17:30 horas una conferencia sobre violencia machista relacionada con el trabajo de investigación del libro en el salón de Plenos del Ayuntamiento de Rincón de la Victoria. “Se trata de celebrar una conferencia abierta a la ciudadanía y de manera participativa impartida por Angélica Cuenca ` Violencia sexual: la violencia invisible´ abordando cuestiones relacionadas con la violencia machista que afecta a todas las mujeres, y especialmente a chicas jóvenes y adolescentes”, señala Aguilar. También se ofrecerán conferencias participativas en centros educativos e institutos del municipio. Todas estas acciones están financiadas con cargo a los Fondos del Pacto de Estado y por los presupuestos del Área de Mujer e Igualdad del Ayuntamiento de Rincón de la Victoria. Por último, la concejala ha recordado que hasta el próximo 28 de noviembre se puede visitar la exposición`La Violencia Machista no es Personal es Social´ organizada por el Área Bienestar Social junto a la Asociación Azul Violeta en la Sala Mare Nostrum de La Cala del Moral.

In this episode, Tiffany speaks with Professor Cynthia Orozco about her new book, Pioneer of Mexican-American Civil Rights: Alonso S. Perales, published with Arte Público Press in 2020. Alonso S. Perales is a leading Latino lawyer of the twentieth century. Though he has remained overlooked in the historical record until now. In Orozco's newest publication, she argues that Perales was a significant player in civil rights politics and made a profound impact by founding the League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) and organized many Latinos to engage in political and educational reform. From primary and rich secondary sources across Texas, Orozco masterfully crafted an intriguing life story of Perales. Chapters include Perales upbringing in south Texas, pursuing an education in Washington, D.C., organizing Latinos in San Antonio, the founding of LULAC, familial influence in his personal and political decisions, the rivalries and solidarities he formed over time, and the events leading up to his death. There are not enough political biographies on Latina/o peoples in the U.S. But Orozco's work continues to pave a path for opening discussions about the need for biography writing. And more people should take notice. Tiffany González is an Assistant Professor of History at James Madison University. She is a historian of Chicana/Latinx history, American politics, and social movements.  Learn more about your ad choices.
