Descripción del Artista
Executive Director of Museo de las Americas (Denver, Colorado), since July 2009. She's the third chief executive in the museum's since was founded in 1991 by José Aguayo, Salazar was born in Veracruz, Mexico, but she's lived in Denver for more than thirty years. She has a bachelor's degree in fine arts and literature from the Universidad Veracruzana and a master's degree in multicultural education from the University of Colorado in Denver. From 1979 to 2001, she taught art at Horace Mann and Lake middle schools, both in west Denver. Then she became the arts coordinator for Denver Public Schools, administering a multimillion-dollar program aimed at art teachers. During this time, she has also been a practicing artist with signature work that involves small installations in boxes that relate to both Mexican altars and Joseph Cornell sculptures. Salazar often takes small plastic religious figures and integrates them into miniature settings. Her ... work has been presented in many art venues, including the Museo — most notably, in the exhibition Never Leaving Aztlan. Salazar is married to another noted artist, Daniel Salazar; over the years, the couple has been tireless in promoting Chicano/Chicana art, both locally and nationally.
