Prints to Banners in Albuquerque

Julianna Kirwin of Albuquerque, New Mexico, put up banners of prints along Mountain Road near downtown Albuquerque, New Mexico, during the Covid lockdown in June, 2020.

She also wheat pasted her large print on her studio facing Mountain Road (the same print that was hanging at the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque).

The Daily Lobo, the newspaper of the University of New Mexico, wrote an article about the banner/prints -- Mountain Road receives new street banners from local artists.  There is also a posting about it on Julianna's blog, on June 2, 2020.

Meanwhile in July 2020, street artists began to paint the plywood in downtown Albuquerque, as the buildings have been boarded up since the George Floyd riot on June 1st.
