516 ARTS presents “MIGRATORY,” led by renowned Mexican artist Minerva Cuevas as part of her “International Understanding Foundation.” “MIGRATORY” was developed as a conceptual structure highlighting solidarity networks and creative environments in El Paso and Ciudad Juárez. The artworks in the exhibition are created by multiple artists with Cuevas, bringing together a mural in the gallery, prints, video, glass, and the “Migratory Yellow Pages / La Seccíon Amarilla de la Migracíon.” This book provides information for migrants to have a welcoming transit and is comprised of contributions from local and international visual artists, writers, and organizations. From poetry and visual art to practical resources, the book is meant to be a welcoming handbook and cultural resource for asylum seekers and people in transit.
