Corrido
title Corridodescription Serigraph on paper, 18 in. x 12 in. This print is a ballad to the city of El Paso, Texas.

A corrido is a Mexican ballad or folk song about the struggles and victories people experience. In this augmented reality work, look for El Paso born artist Luis Jiménez’ lagartos (alligators), the star on the Franklin Mountains, the American and Mexican flags flown over the border bridge.

Piñatas Encantadas: General View
title Piñatas Encantadas: General Viewdescription Centro Cultural de la Raza (San Diego, Calif.) For his inSITE97 Community Engagement project, San Diego artist Roberto Salas collaborated with artists in Tijuana and San Diego as well as San Diego students to create a piñata installation at the Centro Cultural de la Raza. Salas designed the piñatas in reference to his perceptions of traditional, popular, and personal iconography and allowed the artists to incorporate their own perspectives as the piñatas were fabricated. With bold colors and unusual imagery, "Piñatas encantadas" visually reinterpreted the traditional Mexican piñata while celebrating its history and mythology. As part of the installation, the piñata blueprints were displayed and students painted a mural that echoed themes from the piñatas. --inSITE97 Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 05, Item 329) [Title, Date].
