Institute of Contemporary Art San José

A contemporary art museum in downtown San José.

Border Axes

December 10, 2019 by SJICA

Border Axes: San Jose Connection connects artists with political and human rights activists to produce a series of works that explore poverty, oppression, immigration, and the occupational hazards of Mexican workers in California. This project grew from discussions about border issues that were initiated by the San Diego’s Border Art Workshop Taller De Arte Fronterizo. The exhibition also marks the ICA’s temporary expansion to a second building at 2 North Second Street in San Jose, the former site of the Johnson Wax Development Corporation.
