8/23: Free Screening: Xicanx Symposium: “ASCO: WITHOUT PERMISSION”

ASCO: WITHOUT PERMISSION challenges the limits of documentary conventions to tell the story of a revolutionary Chicano art group who turned 1970s LA into their defiant canvas. Merging activism with radical art-making, ASCO challenged the established order of Hollywood, museums, and media and are now considered amongst the 20th century’s most significant artists. Director Travis Gutiérrez Senger mirrors their boundary-breaking spirit by creating new works made in the ASCO tradition with a new generation of Latinx artists. The result is more than a profile – it’s a reimagining of what’s possible in art and cinema, celebrating iconoclasts who were decades ahead of their time.

This screening is FREE with Registration.
