![]() ![]() Old Town was given a breathtaking and iconic masterpiece of public art in 2019 when Albuquerque-based Nanibah Chacon painted a magnificent mural near the corner of Turner Street and Cesar Chavez Avenue, this year’s runner-up in the Top of the Town “Public Art” category. Local and visiting artists are exploring a wide variety of subjects, forms and styles, from natural forms to graffiti-based and calligraphic designs, Calder-like slabs of color, portraits imbued with personality and emotion, and even a few bafflers, just to keep things interesting.
