Galería
de la Raza's Digital Mural Project (DMP) encourages
the use of the latest digital technology to create
innovative public art. Building on Galería's
30 year history of painting murals in San Francisco's
Mission District, the DMP seeks to push the mural tradition
forward through the use of new technologies to address
issues confronting the Latino communities.
Initiated
by artist/activist John Leaños and Galería,
the series of digital murals has demonstrated technical
sophistication, visual boldness and strong political content.
Some of the themes explored by the murals include the gentrification
of San Francisco's Mission District, historical
amnesia, the history of cultural displacement in the Mission,
queer Latina issues and racial profiling.
