Reimagining the Border

In the midst of the violence and human suffering taking place on the U.S.-Mexico border, site-specific artworks are combining powerful social critique with humor, irony, and hope.

Throughout the U.S., museum exhibitions are also presenting powerful visual representations of the border experience.
