About

Angie Nunez Delpilar is an undergraduate Art History student at California State University, Dominguez Hills. She has a particular interest in modern and contemporary art, especially Pop Art and its relationship to mass media, consumer culture, and visual storytelling. Angie’s academic work explores how artists respond to the world around them, using imagery, symbolism, and popular references to challenge ideas about identity, society, and cultural value. 

Angie is especially drawn to research that connects art to broader questions of media literacy and public knowledge. She enjoys examining how modern art movements continue to shape the way we interpret images today, from museum spaces to everyday visual culture. She finds Pop Art, in particular, fascinating for its ability to blur boundaries between fine art and popular media while encouraging critical engagement with what we consume and believe. 

In addition to her studies, Angie is passionate about museum work and community engagement. She is interested in how museums can serve as educational and inclusive spaces that foster accessibility, dialogue, and deeper cultural understanding. As an emerging art historian, Angie hopes to contribute to the field through research, curatorial practice, and public-facing initiatives that expand art knowledge and encourage thoughtful visual awareness within communities. 

Angie has also developed a deep appreciation for archival sciences. Having completed an internship at the Gerth Archives and Special Collections at California State University, Dominguez Hills. During her time at Gerth Archives, Angie engaged deeply with artist Mary Hatsuko Higuchi, creating a finding aid, zine, and digital exhibit.

Angie hopes to further her education and research abilities, as well as hone any skills necessary to continue promoting art and literacy.
