Abstract
This paper investigates the work of Asco (1973–1985), a Chicano group from Los Angeles, focusing on a reading of their work that proposes that the group's primary displacement lies in their place of enunciation, moving beyond the reclamation of an Indigenous past toward a contemporary, urban identity. The emergence of Asco within the Chicano movement is contextualized, analyzing three dimensions of their dislocation: the place from which they situate themselves, the characters they represent, and the image production and distribution practices they implement. It examines how Asco challenges the monolithic notion of Chicano art and proposes new visual languages that reflect border thinking and the transition to a contemporary Chicanidad. The paper highlights the impact of these works on the transformation of Chicano identity and their relevance to the contemporary art scene, highlighting the evolution of concerns about acculturation toward a more diverse approach to border culture.
