¡Ponte Trucha!
title ¡Ponte Trucha!description Etching on paper, 11 in. x 7 in. A pachuco in a suit with an alligator skull for a head and who is holding a snake. Francisco Delgado was born on November 3, 1974, in Ciudad Juárez, and grew up in El Paso’s Segundo Barrio. He received his Master of Fine Arts from the Yale School of Art. His Bordeño artworks are informed by the social and cultural struggles inherent to life on the Mexican and United States border. His artwork addresses issues of identity, race, cultural traditions, and government policies that affect migration and immigrants. In his own words, Delgado says, “I am a visual artist with an artistic focus on social issues.” He visually represents the history of his community and creates a dialogue for social change. Often using dark humor or satire to depict his narratives, his artwork highlights the struggles of underrepresented people along the border. A prolific artist, Delgado works in painting, drawing, printmaking, and has also produced community murals. His works have been published in books and exhibited in national and international art exhibitions and community institutions.

Governor of the Tarahumaras
title Governor of the Tarahumarasdescription Etching on paper, 20 in. x 13 in. Portrait of Governor of the Tarahumaras in foreground, with flat landscape and wooden house in background. Artist Marta Arat (1932-2002) was born in Ciudad Juarez, Chihuahua, Mexico. She spent most of her adult life along the El Paso-Juárez border, where she studied art at The University of Texas at El Paso. Arat painted her social and spiritual self and created work that experimented with color while mirroring a time and place that reflects the region of the Chihuahuan borderlands. Arat’s work presents images taken from the beauty and diversity of people’s hopes, aspirations and dreams. Marta Arat painted a full spectrum of women, with the belief that women along the US-Mexico border are often overlooked though they are a historic example of life and change. She was a close friend of the El Paso collector Juan Sandoval. Arat was active in the Soñando Juntos organization, an immigrant youth-led organization that empowers borderland immigrant youth through civic engagement. Locally, her first exhibition Life in the Barranca Del Cobre in 1980 was followed by her first group exhibition La Mujer y Su Arte in 1984. Arat’s artwork has been published in magazines, books, and commercially. From Chihuahua, Mexico throughout Texas and to other parts of the region, she has exhibited in museums, galleries and university libraries. Her paintings can be found in many private, corporate, and public museum collections throughout Mexico and the United States.artist/creator Arat, Martasubject Indigenous peoples Indígenas Workers Governors Farmworkers Elders Ancianos Nature in art Leadership Borderlands Frontera Tarahumara Indians Intaglio Prints Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
