Las Santas Locas Postcard Set of 7 | Yolanda López Portrait of the Artist Exhibition |

"Educate, Mentor, Protect." - Yolanda López

In 1979, Yolanda López created a body of photographs capturing a dignified and nuanced portrayal of Chicana womanhood.   As part of the larger series documenting everyday life in the San Francisco Mission District, López began photographing the all-female car club, Las Santas Locas, whose lowrider Volkswagen Beetles won a competition in a male-dominated arena.  These portraits are indelible feminist images of defiant joy.

Las Santas Locas Postcard Set features 7 artwork images of the digital print of the black-and-white photographs of the Las Santas Locas, from the series Life in the Mission, 1979, printed 2021 on view at San José Museum of Art's 'Yolanda López Portrait of the Artist Exhibition'.
