Ester Hernandez: Archive Room: Ester Hernandez

Cantor Arts Center San Francisco
Exhibition on view: Aug 6, 2025 - Jul 5, 2026

San Francisco Mission District-based artist Ester Hernandez is a celebrated Chicana printmaker and storyteller. In iconic works such as Sun Mad, she deftly weaves urgent, incisive commentary with a bold visual language. This single-gallery presentation highlights a selection of artwork, writing, and other ephemera from the artist's archive at Stanford Special Collections. The grouping of material reveals that Hernandez's artwork and sociopolitical convictions have walked in lockstep since the very beginning of her career, shaped by her family's background as farmworkers in California's raisin belt in San Joaquin Valley, where she was born, and Hernandez's own life experiences.
