The Mission Cultural Center for Latino Arts has showcased and maintained the Latino cultural through art for over 30 years. MCCLA provides classes to the community, theater performances and art exhibits.

Their latest exhibit, The Question is Known: (W)here is Latin American/Latino Art?, runs from April 18 to May 24.

Curator Anthony Torres explores and expands the definition of Latin/Latino art. Instead of being separately categorized in its own group, he says he wants to show how Latin art can be diverse and put into the broader category of contemporary art.

"The Question is Known does not identify or describe some 'essential spirit' or Latin American or Latino art," Torres said. "But rather re-presents 'Latin American/Latino art' as an open area of inquiry that is in a constant process of negation and negotiation."

The exhibit features political, spiritual and personal artistic works by 30 artists from around the world. For more information, go to http://www.missionculturalcenter.org
