Prigoff (James) slide collection

About this Collection

The James Prigoff slide collection is an important visual resource that helps document the Chicano visual arts movement in California, and in particular, the San Diego and Tijuana area. The collection complements that of other CEMA collections that make up a visual record about San Diego’s Chicano Park and artists whose work appear there, especially that of Chicano artists Victor Ochoa, Guillermo Aranda, Nuke, Victor Ochoa, Jesse Ortiz, Sake, Michael Schnorr, Mario Torero and others. The slides in this collection are overwhelmingly of mural art and of spray can art. View collection guide.
