Abstract
In the autumn of 2015, the University of Nebraska at Omaha’s Office of Latin and Latin American Studies (UNO-OLLAS) organized the first of what aspire to be many exhibitions of art made by and for Latinx audiences. Buttressed by speakers, workshops, and panels, that exhibition laid the groundwork for what would become this issue of Journal of Latino/Latin American Studies focused on Art of the Latinx Diaspora. Our questions are direct and without presupposition: What is the Art of the Latinx Diaspora at this moment in its history? How does it manifest? What are its concerns and assertions? To what histories does it refer and from which does it draw inspiration, imagery, and symbolism? Is it even possible to map such art or such a diaspora?
