Artepaños are kerchiefs transformed into works of art by prisoners that alternatively self-identify as Chicano, Mexican- American, Latino, and/or Hispanic. Artepaño: Chicano Prisoner Kerchief Art presents a thorough sampling of the distinctive styles found in paño art with more than 60 plates. The art- works range from simple valentines to chilling threats and grand biographical narratives. The vast majority of the work is drawn from the collection of Reno Leplat-Torti, collector of the largest assemblage of kerchief art in the world. Mr. Leplat- Torti’s selections are augmented by works from the Nora Eccles Harrison Museum of Art collection and private collections.
