SAMC ARTalk Ep.4: Alex Rubio

In this episode of SAMC ARTalk, we sit down with painter, muralist, and gallery director Alex Rubio. Originally from San Antonio, Rubio (nicknamed "El Diablito") began his career as a young muralist in a housing project. He has developed his talent by serving his community as an instructor for youth and creating murals on the walls of cathedrals and more. His artwork focuses on narrative drawings and paintings with mixed media, based on images deeply rooted in his Latin American culture. He is the recipient of the prestigious Joan Mitchell Foundation award (2007) for painters and is in numerous private and public collections including The Cheech Marin Collection, The McNay Art Museum and the San Antonio Museum of Art, The Art Museum of South Texas, and The National Museum of Mexican Art in Chicago just to name a few.
