In its 25 years MACLA has showcased the work of emerging and established Latino artists in the Bay Area,United States and beyond. The Chicana/o Biennial is MACLA鈥檚 most visible and popular juried exhibition and the only Biennial exclusively dedicated to Contemporary Chicana/o Art in the U.S.

As with previous biennials, MACLA鈥檚 6th Biennial presents artists of different generations and backgrounds working in a wide variety of media including video, sculpture, painting, printmaking, and photography. The exhibiting artists represent a cross-generation from the rich cultural and artistic worlds of California, Texas, Florida, Illinois, and Pennsylvania. The artists in the sixth edition of the Chicana/o Biennial hold up a mirror to the changing realities of contemporary American politics tackling issues of urgency today: immigration, border politics, labor, class, inequality, race, identity, nationality, spirituality, health, and the environment.
