Charlie Carillo EP 2 Visiones is a bold and exciting television series about Latino art and culture in the United States. Utilizing the talents and skills of Latino producers from around the country, Visiones presents an emotionally evocative journey into Latino art and culture.

Visiones incorporates unique storytelling, innovative filmmaking, and fresh perspectives to weave an interesting account of the past and its relationship to the present and the future. It is a stirring voyage, one that spans from the colonial period to the present day. Visiones fleshes out the individual stories, landscapes, and histories-both of the artists and the artistic mediums-to provide a vibrant and more complete outlook on Latino art and culture.

The six-part series is divided into themes that capture different art forms. Visiones takes a look at the Latino theater tradition and its evolution, the second episode delves into the music and dance aspects of Latino life, and the third episode tackles the various forms of Latino art and its relationship to social change. Well-paced and emotionally potent, Visiones provides an invigorating context to Latino art and culture that is sorely needed in this changing face of American life.

Visiones is enhanced by this educational component that will provide a rich fund of information from which educators and parents can draw.

Visiones aired over 3,000 times on PBS in the fall schedule of 2004. Visiones is a co-production of Galán Incorporated and the National Association of Latino Arts and Culture. The presenters are the Independent Television Service (ITVS) and Latino Public Broadcasting (LPB). Funders include the Corporation for Public Broadcasting (CPB), the Ford Foundation, Houston Endowment, and the Texas Commission on the Arts.
