Since its 2005 founding, the Rubin Center has made a name for itself as an outpost for the production and exhibition of experimental contemporary art in a geographically isolated border region. It has hosted more than 150 exhibitions and special projects, presented public lectures and conducted workshops for students of all ages, offering the community a direct experience with practitioners from around the globe. Uniquely bilingual and bicultural, its location enables it to partner with artists, institutions and community organizations in both Juarez and El Paso.

“Few arts funders have the independence and clarity of purpose to defend the rights of artists and arts organizations to freely express difficult, uncomfortable, even radical ideas as courageously and consistently as the Andy Warhol Foundation.”
