The basic idea is to show artwork from Tucson. El Paso is less than 5 hours down the road, but few people in El Paso have much of an idea of what goes on in Tucson artisically, and vice-versa. Prints travel and show better than painting and sculpture, and thus work best for regional shows. We also included some prints from El Paso, Phoenix and Albuquerque, hoping to encourage some artistic interaction in the whole Southwest. Thus we named our pop-up gallery "Yaybig Southwest," after the print gallery in Tucson.
