Gomez-Pena is a performance artist, a self-termed border artist who has performed extensively in both the United States and Mexico. For him, crossing the border is a way of life and a way of art--the border culture is his medium. This book is a collection of poems, essays, and radio and video scripts. The text is predominately in English, but it is interspersed with Spanish and the occasional Nahuatl. As readers, we become participants in his performances. Gomez-Pena demands that we reexamine our notions of the border, of the Hispanic, of the Mexican, and of art. He fiercely confronts racism on both sides of the border. Recommended for large Hispanic and arts collections.
