The revival of mural painting that has occurred in San Francisco since the 1970s, especially among the Chicano population of the city’s Mission District, has marked differences from its social realist forerunner in Mexico and the United States some 40 years earlier. Rather than being government sponsored and limited to murals on government buildings, the contemporary mural movement sprang from the people themselves, with murals appearing on community buildings and throughout college campuses. Perhaps the biggest difference, however, is the process. In earlier twentieth-century Mexico, murals resulted from the vision of individual artists. But today’s murals are characteristically the products of artists working with local residents on design and creation.
Such community engagement is characteristic of the Chicano art movement as a whole, which evolved from the same foundations as the Chicano civil rights movement of the mid-1960s. Both were a direct response to the needs of Chicanos in the United States, who were fighting for the right to adequate education, political empowerment, and decent working conditions. Artists joined other cultural workers in making political statements and played a key role in taking these statements to the public. They developed collectives and established cultural centers that functioned as the public-relations arm of the Chicano sociopolitical movement.
According to the passage, which of the following statements about the “cultural centers” is true?
选项
A、They were the venue where many later leaders of the Chicano civil rights movement first became politically active.
B、Though later widespread, they originated in San Francisco area.
C、Springing up in a number of communities, they initially had largely apolitical goals centered on art instruction.
D、They constituted the nucleus from which the Chicano civil rights movement originated.
E、Founded by artists, they provided support for the Chicano civil rights movement.
答案
E
解析
细节题。定位点为题目中的cultural centers,对应文章最后一句话。这里的Chicano civil rights movement对应原文中的Chicano sociopolitical movement;选项中的Founded by artists对应原文的They established cultural centers。答案选E。
