We Place Life at the Center / Situamos la vida en el centro is organized by the Vincent Price Art Museum at East Los Angeles College. The exhibition is curated by Joseph Daniel Valencia with the assistance of Nadia Estrada and Gloria Ortega.
We Place Life at the Center / Situamos la vida en el centro is among more than 70 exhibitions and programs presented as part of PST ART. Returning in September 2024 with its latest edition, PST ART: Art & Science Collide, this landmark regional event explores the intersections of art and science, both past and present. PST ART is presented by Getty. For more information about PST ART: Art & Science Collide, please visit pst.art
We Place Life at the Center / Situamos la vida en el centro participated in the PST ART Climate Impact Program, a groundbreaking integration of climate action, community building, and data reporting as part of Getty’s landmark recurring arts event. The Vincent Price Art Museum tracked carbon emissions from exhibition travel and artwork shipping and developed programs to build community around climate action. Examples of specific climate initiatives integrated into the project include an ecological balancing program aimed at providing unrestricted funding to support the work of Indigenous and environmental justice organizations within our region. Information about the PST ART Climate Impact Program can be found at pst.art/climate
Additional support for this project is provided through a grant from the Mellon Foundation.
All exhibitions and programs at the Vincent Price Art Museum are underwritten by the Vincent Price Art Museum Foundation and East Los Angeles College.
