"Walk to the Past"

The Consulate General of Mexico and Centro Cultural Mexicano Paso del Norte presented the Photographic Exhibition “Urban Borders” by Alejandro Briseño,from April 6th thru 29th., 2016. “Urban Borders” With this photographic sequence, the artist presents his vision of the Paso Del Norte region. He depicts a permeable stretch of land in two countries, where people on both sides of the border, carry on with their lives and create a perpetual fraternal bond with no historic president anywhere else in the world. Throughout its 27 pieces, “Urban Borders” takes on emblematic places of the region and utilizes them to narrate the most spontaneous aspects of daily life. Briseño immortalizes the inhabitants of this border through an iconography that is the direct result of this cultural crossbreeding, which demands to be admired for its binational peculiarities.
