Crafted of polychrome fiberglass, this 16-foot-tall sculpture is a tribute to the Mexican cowboy, or “vaquero,” of the American West. Luis Alfonso Jimenez (1940-2006) was born in El Paso, Texas, where he learned some of the craftsmanship used in his artwork while working in his father’s sign shop. His sculptures, which celebrate Hispanic culture, have a distinctive appearance and often feature bright colors, slick surfaces, and fluid lines.
