La Frontera: Artists Along The Us Mexican Border

Muralist Werc Alvarez in front of his mural (90 feet long,11 feet tall) at the entrance to the Stanton Bridge which connects El Paso, USA, with Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. His work: http://wercworldwide.com/

“What is the essence of your life as a border artist?”

“The essence comes from my acculturation process of being born in MX and growing up in the U.S. combined with gang and graffiti subcultures.”

  • Hey Werc, Congrats about your murals. Now I know who painted them 😉 Look, I am currently working on creating a book about artists in the borderland and I am absolutely interested on publishing your work. If you’re interested, would you send me a very brief biography about your work and your artistic influences? Plus I would need your basic info (name, age, etc). This is my email saajar@hotmail.com Have a great day, and thanks for your time.
