Writing in the catalogue produced for the two-part survey De Aquí Y De Allá: Frank Romero, A Survey at Ruiz-Healy Art locations in San Antonio and New York, curator Rafael Barrientos Martínez drew a throughline between ancient Indigenous pictographs of the Southwest and Romero’s graffiti-based symbology. The exhibition itself draws a line from Romero’s standout 1981 mural-sized painting Por El Pueblo through the present, with recent examples of the 83-year-old painter’s work, including a recent refashioning of works from The Adobe Series of 1995 and the Nopal table sculptures of 2024.
