Alida Cervantes is a Mexican artist who lives and works in the Tijuana/San Diego border region. Born in San Diego, California, she was raised in Tijuana, Mexico, and grew up on both sides of the border. Her paintings, drawings, and performance work draw inspiration from class, race, and gender relations in colonial and present-day Mexico. Cervantes earned a BA from the University of California, San Diego, then studied at Scuola di Arte Lorenzo di Medici in Florence, Italy, for two years. She earned her MFA from the University of California, San Diego.
The opening reception for Alida Cervantes will be held at the Mills Gallery, Boston Center for the Arts, on Friday, April 14, from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. The exhibition runs April 14 through June 25, also at the Mills Gallery.
