HISTORIETAs

About

Curated by Peruvian cartoonist and educator Carlo Quispe, Historietas brings together seven contemporary Latinx creators whose work spans from the Bronx to the Lower East Side, tracing histories across public schools, prison libraries, community spaces, homes, and streets. These artists—Ivan Velez Jr., Sandy Jimenez, Carlo Quispe, Sharon De La Cruz, Ivan Monforte, Medar De La Cruz, and Daisy Ruiz—challenge dominant narratives through the immediacy of comics, using the medium to document lived experiences and create informal yet powerful counter-histories.
