This exhibition of WestConn’s Mexican art and objects from 1956-1973 compels us to consider the theme of “otherness” through the lens of Mexican modernism, provenance, ancient aesthetics, and the power of art to bridge cultural divides. “Sin Indiferncia” or “Without Indifference” is the title of a sculpture in this exhibit by Mexican artist, Herbert Hofmann-Ysenbourg, and speaks to how WCSU looked past otherness and came to possess and preserve these objects.
