Cheech Marin's Chicano Art Collection

i came across this page, about Cheech Marin's collection of Chicano art whose showcase was rejected at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. It hints that it was originally turned down, giving the possibility that it was later accepted. I'm still yet to come across that information. But I found this topic interesting since it seems that Chicano art seem somewhat neglected by the mainstreams of art establishments. Even in my art history classes I do not recall covering much of Chicano art. I'm interested to see what Cheech Marin's collection looks like since I never took him for much of an art collector. I only new him for some of his acting roles, especially the Cheech and Chong movie collection.
