The Amon Carter Museum of American Art will present Christina Fernandez's exhibit, "Multiple Exposures." The exhibition, organized by the California Museum of Photography at UCR ARTS in Riverside, California, is the first extensive survey of work by the Los Angeles-based artist who has spent decades in a rich exploration of migration, labor, gender, her Mexican-American identity, and the unique capacities of the photographic medium itself. The exhibition firmly centers Fernandez’s work within contemporaneous movements including postmodernism and the Chicano movement.

Fernandez is an artist and educator acclaimed for photographs that examine her connections to her native Los Angeles, the intersections between public and private spaces, personal and historical narratives, exurban and urban spaces, and the cultural border and historical relationships between Mexico and the United States.

The artworks showcased in the exhibition span 30 years, illuminating the formal and conceptual threads that connect them. In this comprehensive solo exhibition, Fernandez’s images compel viewers to reconsider history, the border, and the lives that cross and inhabit them.
