Tortilla Curtain Project, A series of mixed-media collaborative prints presents over 80 prints created by the Foothill Printmakers.
In January 2008, the Foothill Printmakers began active production of The Tortilla Curtain Project, influenced by the T.C. Boyle’s book, The Tortilla Curtain. The book was selected as part of the Foothill College “One Book, One College, One Community Initiative,” which encourages students, faculty, staff and community members to read the same book and participate in discussions and events related to the work.
The collaborative process used in The Tortilla Curtain Project encouraged diversity of voice, reduced the ownership of ideas, celebrated community and a shared sense of humanity as expressed in the book. Presented here are the results of this artistic adventure; these prints reflect both independent and shared expressions influenced by The Tortilla Curtain.
