ARTILLERY APPAREL GALLERY PRESENTS
RISE UP: THE POLITICAL GRAPHICS OF DIGNIDAD REBELDE
RISE UP is a exhibition featuring work by Dignidad Rebelde, a graphic arts collaboration between artists Melanie Cervantes & Jesús Barraza. Emerging from the everyday struggles of Raza & Indigenous peoples, DR produces art intended to transform people’s stories into a radical visual language which is then returned to those who inspired it in the first place. Working primarily as poster artists, DR continues working in an important artistic tradition deeply rooted in popular social movements throughout the Americas.
