Overview and quickfacts

Rasquache is a term used to describe a DIY aesthetic in Chicano culture. It is often used in reference to lowrider cars and art, but can also be applied to other areas of life and culture. The term is derived from the Spanish word for “cheap” or “shabby”, and is used to describe a style that is both creative and resourceful. Rasquache artists often use recycled materials to create their art, and the style is known for its bright colors and bold patterns.

The art style is also known as: Cheap, tawdry, gaudy, tacky, low-budget

Detailed Description

Rasquache is a Chicano art movement that emerged in the 1970s in Southern California. It is characterized by its use of found objects and everyday materials, often in a humorous or irreverent way. Rasquache artists often seek to challenge traditional notions of what is considered art. They may use unconventional materials or techniques, or create works that are intentionally kitschy or campy. Famous Rasquache artists include Carlos Almaraz, Gilbert “Magu” Lujan, and John Valadez. Almaraz’s “The Big One” (1982) is a prime example of Rasquache art, with its depiction of the 1980 earthquake that struck Los Angeles. Lujan’s “The Virgin of Guadalupe” (1984) is another well-known Rasquache work, which playfully reimagines the traditional Mexican icon. Valadez’s “The Wall” (1982) is a more serious Rasquache work that addresses the issue of immigration. It consists of a painting of the U.S.-Mexico border fence, with a ladder leaning against it. The ladder symbolizes the hope of those who seek to cross the border.
