Curated by Quetzal Flores, a Grammy award-winning musician/community historian, The Re-Membering Generation pairs eight duets (a visual artist with a musician) to produce original songs and serigraph prints inspired by their conversations, reflections, and memories of the LA music scene of the late 90s.

"For generations of musicians, Self Help Graphics has served as a rite of passage. A collective space of retreat, experimentation, re-membering regeneration. - Curator, Quetzal Flores

The exhibition will feature ephemera serving as a window to this period alongside serigraph prints and music created by Rachel Negrete Thorson and Alice Bag, Marisol Torres and Gustavo Avina, Yolanda Gonzalez and Lysa Flores, Margaret “Quica” Alarcon and Quetzal Flores, Usen Gandara and Randy Rodarte, Wenceslao Quiroz and Raul Pacheco, Omar G. Ramirez and Tylana Renga, and Jose Ramirez and Yaotl. 

This exhibition is made possible through the generous support of the Pasadena Art Alliance.
