Rubio |
San Antonio artist
Alex 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. His artwork focuses on narrative
drawings and paintings with mixed media, based on images deeply
rooted in his Latin American culture.
Rubio extends his talents as an artist-in-residence at the Bexar
County Detention Ministry in San Antonio teaching art to inmates
with the Inmate Creative Arts Program (ICAP). He works with
the inmates on murals, handkerchiefs, and other traditional
forms of inmate art. He has also curated exhibits of their work
and has included some with exhibits of his own work. Rubio has
exhibited throughout the southwestern United States, as well
as New York and Puerto Rico.
