As can be seen by my resume, l have ample experience in the world of the arts and in uniting communities with artists which I believe would make me an asset to the City with Arts in Public Places. My interest in the arts was born while l was living and working in Guatemala and made ode my first trips to other parts of Latin America. Looking at the arts with an anthropological eye, a m interested in the e visual language of art and how it can tell a symbolic story of the artists culture, both for those artists living and working in their country of origin as well as those in diasporas. • Since joining Pan American Art Projects 1 have been able to create several exhibitions with further this aim by bringing together artists from different origins of the Americas who address similar issues ssues rn their own visual language, thus Pan American. . In addition to producing exhibitions at the gallery every 4 -6 weeks, we have rY ave begun an artist in residency program at the adjacent apartment on the alle g ry premises and are preparing to open a library of the galleries collection of rare and out of print books and catalogues to university students. is . We have collaborated with several international museums and cultural centers in lending artwork from our artists to exhibitions as well as sponsoring exhibitions. We have also sponsored artist in residency opportunities for our artists as well as funded d basks on their work. ! have also !ectured and written articles since beginning my career in the arts.
