Beta Space: Victor Cartagena

http://sjmusart.org/exhibition/beta-space-victor-cartagena

In the latest installment of the San Jose Museum of Art’s exhibition series “Beta Space,” Victor Cartagena examines the plight of migrant workers, particularly those who harvested sugar beets and artichokes in the Bay Area. Cartagena, who was born in El Salvador and now lives and works in San Francisco, has created four new installations inspired by the stories he collected from migrant farm workers with the United Farm Workers Foundation in Salinas, California.
