A Life in the Arts with Tlisza Jaurique - A Renaissance Artist for our Times

February 2022

In this interview with Mexican/Latinx multidisciplinary artist, scholar, and educator Tlisza Jaurique, we're given a retrospective of her career and the evolution of her art. This is a particularly stunning visual display.

Tlsza's work has been presented in a number of major museums and in private collections, but one way to experience her work as a muralist is to visit La Barca Cantina, New York City's first and only Mexican restaurant. Find out more here: www.labarcacantina.com    


What's Next for Tlisza: 

  • Over the summer Tlisza will be working with the Figge Art Museum in Davenport, Iowa. Find our more here: www.figgeartmuseum.org

We're grateful Tlisza shared her story and artistry with us! Thank you!
