In this episode, we sit down with Cecilia Beaven, a dynamic Mexican-born artist, muralist, and illustrator whose work bridges the worlds of fine art and public spaces. Beaven's pieces have graced both urban environments and galleries, transforming her surroundings with a unique blend of surrealism, humor, and critical commentary. Her work explores themes of myth, identity, and the fantastical, reflecting on the human experience through vibrant, intricate visual narratives. Recently, Beaven has been making waves with exhibitions at the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago and the Hyde Park Art Center. These shows highlight her ability to combine intricate storytelling with visual spectacle, drawing viewers into her vibrant, often surreal world. Beyond gallery spaces, Beaven's public art projects have continued to expand, with large-scale murals that engage communities and address themes of identity, history, and the urban environment. We discuss her process, influences, and the challenges of creating art that resonates across cultural contexts. Tune in to hear about her experiences painting murals, collaborating with communities, and navigating the international art scene. Beaven also delves into her ongoing projects and the role of storytelling in her artistic practice. https://www.ceciliabeaven.com/

Emmanuel Gomez, better known as Clue, is the 23-year-old rising street artist you need to know. Born and raised in Chicago's Little Village, Gomez has fostered his deep passion for visual art over the last decade, starting out with graffiti tags and growing into a distinct brand boasting collaborations with the WNDR Museum and the National Museum of Mexican Art. Gomez's Clue character (a green cartoonish figure with question marks for eyes) can be found all over the city — from murals to screen-printed tees to painted-on skateboards — including on the official artwork for Vocalo's Summer Finale on Sept. 20. He sat down with Vocalo host Nudia Hernandez to discuss his artistic evolution, working with Sentrock and the Little Village references infused into the Summer Finale artwork. This segment originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM during Nudia In the Afternoons on Tuesday, Sept. 17. It was produced by Nudia Hernandez and edited by Morgan Ciocca.

You can't log onto a Facebook Tequila group without seeing Cristalino Tequila derided, abused, and generally treated as some kind of punch line. But … do those user groups reflect the average consumer? Does the average consumer matter as much as the more highly engaged consumers that populate these online groups? And does consumption itself matter as much as cultural heritage? And why do I like the average Tequila Cristalino more than I like the average Tequila? That's what I discuss with my past self on this time-travel episode of Agave Road Trip! Agave Road Trip is a critically acclaimed, award-winning podcast that helps gringx bartenders better understand agave, agave spirits, and rural Mexico.

Internationally renowned ceramicist Veronica Castillo alongside Professor Emerita and Independent Publisher Dr. Josie Méndez-Negrete join us in spotlighting their co-authored book, "Rooted in Clay: El Arte de Verónica Castillo." Tony delves into the book written as a plática in which Castillo shares her life work, inspiration, politics, and history with Méndez-Negrete alongside images of her sculptures and experiences that led her to be one of the first artists requested to submit work for the newly launched Latino Heritage Museum for the Smithsonian Institute in Washington DC. Her artwork, primarily ceramics that focus on the “tree of life,” is deeply connected to her indigenous roots in Mexico as well the transformations in aesthetic expressions that have occurred as a result of her work with revolutionary indigenous groups and moving to San Antonio. *********** Verónica Castillo is an internationally acclaimed artist from Izúcar de Matamoros, Puebla, México. At a very young age, under the tutelage of her parents, renowned artists Don Alfonso Castillo Orta and Doña Soledad Martha Hernández Báez, she was exposed to the artistic technique of working in polychromatic ceramics, a tradition passed on from generation to generation. Verónica continues to build upon these traditions while focusing on contemporary issues of injustice and inequality. Her exhibits have achieved national and international recognition, from the Smithsonian in Washington DC to the National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago to the Museo Amparo in Puebla, Mexico. In 2013, Verónica Castillo received the National Endowment for the Arts National Heritage Fellowship Award. She is the owner of E.V.A. (Ecos y Voces de Arte), a gallery on the Southside of San Antonio. Together with an international network of artists, E.V.A. offers the space and support for various forms of cultural art to thrive. Josie Méndez-Negrete PhD, Professor Emerita in Mexican American Studies at the Department of Bicultural-Bilingual Studies (BBL), University of Texas at San Antonio, received her PhD in Sociology from the University of California, Santa Cruz. Duke University Press published Las hijas de Juan: Daughters Betrayed as a revised edition in 2006 and reprinted it in 2010. In 2015, the University of New Mexico Press published her second book, A Life on Hold: Living with Schizophrenia. Along with publishing book chapter and articles on culture, identity, and education, from 2009 2014, Méndez-Negrete served as Lead Editor of Chicana/Latina Studies: The Journal of MALCS. She served as chair of the National Association of Chicana and Chicano Studies (NACCS) and of Mujeres Activas en Letras y Cambio Social (MALCS). In 2021, The University of Arizona, Tucson, published Activist Leaders of San José, California: En sus propias voces (2021). In March 2017, she established Conocimientos as an independent with the vision of publishing untold or hidden Raza stories. The press's first publication—Women, Mujeres, Ixoq': Revolutionary Visions—edited by Claudia D. Hernández received the 2019 International Latino Book Gold Medal Award. In 2023, Rooted in Clay: El arte de Verónica Castillo was published by Conocimientos Press. Transcript

Luis Fitch is a multidisciplinary creative director and designer at UNO Branding based out of Minneapolis but it all started in the Tijuana/San Diego area where his love for art started at a very young age.  We talk about his journey of breaking barriers in the design and marketing sector and staying true to his roots by always adding "color, sabor y personalidad" to everything he does.  His love for collecting stamps came full circle when he received a call from the United States Postal Service to have his own Dia de Muertos stamp and at the same he collaborated with Target  with a full line of household and decorative items to celebrate this special holiday.  He continues to expand his brand, promote his art &  his Mexican culture. 

Abel Alejandre (1968, Michoacán, Mexico) is a Mexican-born, United States-based hyperrealist artist, best known for his explorations of masculinity and vulnerability. Working primarily in pencil, Alejandre creates intricately cross-hatched drawings that can take months to complete. Alejandre's series of twelve panels, "Panoramas," is featured at the Los Angeles Metro Rancho Park/Westwood station.Alejandre also creates woodblock prints using both a giant press he built himself and by hand printing. His monumental My Fathers, which is in the permanent collection at the National Museum of Mexican Art, in Chicago, Illinois, was created by the latter method.

Aida Murad is an Arab NYC based Intuitive Artist whose mission is to help people feel seen, heard and loved through art. She paints with her fingers due to a past trauma. She became an Artist because she had Rheumatoid Arthritis. They say the darker the shadow the brighter the light. Her Rheumatoid Arthritis was her shadow. Her art is her light and serves as a light for others. When she was 20 years old, she was diagnosed with her shadow and, subsequently, semi paralyzed for 4.5 years. When she was in a place of suffering, she turned to art to help her heal. However, she didn't paint with paint brushes, she painted only with her hands to demonstrate to herself and to the world that she is not damaged, and this dysmorphia will not define her. Today, Aida combines her expertise as a Reiki master, Inuitive, Coach and Artist to create fine art by painting with her fingers to both beautify people's physical spaces and bring healing (each art piece is infused with reiki). As of May 2022, Aida has sold out 10 collections and has been featured in 21 exhibitions. Her work has been featured globally including in Voice of America, Reuters, TRT World, Al Jazeera, and the United Nations. She is named as the 2022 Georgetown University Artist in Residence to create healing art for the Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center. She has also collaborated with Grammy Award winning artists including the drummer from The Doors, John Densmore, to use art for social good. Her paintings have been acquired globally including by the previous Deputy Minister of Culture of the U.A.E, Qatar America Institute for Culture, Board Member of the National Museum of Mexican Art and the previous Chairman of the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights under Obama's administration at a historical landmark in Chicago. She is a BMW Foundation Leader and has received numerous awards for women in impact. As an Arab and previously disabled individual, Aida hopes to open increased pathways for more minorities and differently abled individuals to enter the arts as well as use art for nature conservation and climate change awareness.
