To support phase two of The Latinx Papers project undertaken by the International Center for the Arts of the Americas (ICAA) at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, working in collaboration with archival repositories and community researchers across the US. Thousands of new documents related to the history of Latinx art and artists are being recovered, digitized, and published on the ICAA’s Documents of Latin American and Latino Art Project portal, the premier digital repository for these art historical and curatorial fields, so that key intellectual source materials can be made freely accessible to students, researchers, and the general public. Documents sourced from partner repositories and individuals will be promoted via ICAA’s social media channels and its Papelitos blog space. Links to finding aids, when available, reinforce an emphasis on the physical location of documents and increase the visibility of partner collections.
