2024 Border Biennial

December 15 - April 14,2024

From the El Paso Museum of Art: "The 2024 Border Biennial / Bienal Fronteriza 2024 will focus on the unique identity of the borderland, which includes a diversity of experiences. The exhibition will explore how the definition of “the border,” has helped shape artists’ artistic practice and make up who they are, including their history, gender, culture, race, sexuality, etc. Engaging programming and a publication capturing the show will accompany the exhibition. While the artworks in the Border Biennial focus on the United States / Mexico border, the exhibition provides an opportunity to reflect on borders and their conditions worldwide. The 2024 Border Biennial is curated by Claudia S. Preza M.A., EPMA Assistant Curator, alongside curatorial advisors Edgar Picazo Merino and Jazmín Ontiveros Harvey. The Museo de Arte de Ciudad Juárez (MACJ) and The El Paso Museum of Art (EPMA) are committed to fostering, strengthening, and honoring the dialogue spearheaded by curators, artists, and the communities we serve. Together, we are working collaboratively to realign the 2024 Biennial to engage the many voices that will take part in the Biennial, and jointly develop programming to explore and enrich the Biennial themes. Support for the 2024 Border Biennial is by provided by the Mellon Foundation. Additional support provided by the Texas Commission on the Arts, the El Paso Museum of Art Foundation, and the City of El Paso Museums and Cultural Affairs Department."
