Los Desaparacidos/The Disappeared Exhibition

This venue was of particular importance due to its focus on work by artists of Hispanic heritage and its proximity to the U.S.-Mexico border. Eighty-percent of UTEP’s student body is Mexican or Mexican-American.

The Stanlee & Gerald Rubin Center for Visual Arts at the University of Texas at El Paso received a grant in support of presenting the exhibition Los Desaparacidos/The Disappeared, on view from May through September 2009.
