During August's citywide celebration commemorating the Chicano Arts Movement, Xicanx Month, Dock Space Annex will feature four San Antonio based artists: Gilbert Martinez, Lee Ortiz, Edward Perez, and Gloria Chavez Ramirez in a show called Y Todo Lo Que Somos/Everything We Are. Opening Reception Sat, Aug 10th from 6-9 pm.

Born and raised in San Antonio, Gilbert Martinez’s work is heavily influenced by his surroundings and heritage as he combines illustration, screen printing and painting to create works on wood and paper.
