new Mexico made: Statement from the curator

No pretense—just an unapologetic showcase of full-time artists doing it their way.

Artists, who are carving their own paths, breaking free from the confines of conventional thinking and creating beyond the limitations imposed by the art establishment. Our journey is a testament to the enduring power of creativity and the resilience of the New Mexican artistic culture. A celebration of those who work, bleed, and love what they create.

Art for and by the La Gente, no soy marinero...

-Eric Romero, curator
