Arte: Selections from the UTSA Art Collection Catalog
I had the privilege of creating a stunning book for The Office of the President at The University of Texas at San Antonio, showcasing 50 artworks from renowned regional, national, and international artists, many with ties to San Antonio. This curated selection includes sculptures, paintings, mixed media, and works on paper, offering valuable insights into UTSA's culture, history, and identity over the past 50 years, with a special emphasis on the city's vibrant Hispanic cultural heritage.
This book serves as both a physical and intellectual representation of UTSA's commitment to expanding knowledge. The chosen artworks, spanning diverse backgrounds, countries, and career stages, exemplify the virtuosity of the university's permanent collection. They educate, empower, and captivate the imagination, embodying the university's dedication to artistic excellence and cultural enrichment.
The UTSA Art Collection, showcased in this publication, provides an invaluable resource for teaching, research, and curatorial training for students and faculty alike. By presenting a comprehensive overview of the collection's breadth and depth, this book offers readers a unique opportunity to engage with the diverse array of artworks for the first time.
Featuring a luxurious hardcover design with 100 pages, a gold foil-stamped cover, and 4-color printing, the book measures 12"×12", providing a comprehensive showcase of each art piece. It is a testament to the creativity, talent, and vision of the artists represented in UTSA's esteemed collection, ensuring their legacy continues to inspire and enrich the university community and beyond.
