Seeing double with Joe Ded

Filled with vibrancy and charm, these two pieces, showcase Joe’s charismatic artistic style. See works like Joe Ded’s Defiance and Warmth featured in Gallery 1 of our “Walls that Speak”, exhibition.

“Walls that Speak: New Work by Man One, Cosmé Cordova, and Joe Ded”, is an exhibition that highlights recent work not previously exhibited in a museum setting by three local mid-career Chicano artists. Each has used his expressive style to both create important works of art and to build community engagement in their hometowns.

Vendedoras de Flores, Alfredo Ramos Martinez

At the invitation of Millard Sheets, Alfredo Ramos Martinez arrived in Claremont and designed 100 foot fresco, The Flower Vendors, for the Margaret Fowler Garden on the Scripps campus. He had only sketched in the work and painted a small portion before his death on November 8, 1946. Ramos Martinez‘s presence,though brief, and his Fowler Garden mural embodied the respect for the Mexican mural movement shared among artists of the Claremont community.

Come see the many murals depicted in our Walls that Speak: Chicana/o Mural Art, 1970s-1990’s, that truly represent and inspire the many Chicana/o voices of their generation. Their artistry still lives among all of us as a reminder of their vibrant existence, despite their political, social, and cultural struggles.

CCMA is open Thursday - Sunday 12 PM - 4 PM.
