..Nicholas Herrera is a New Mexican santero, an artist who makes images of saints. But his achievement is a great deal more than this: he brings to his work a refreshing and often unexpected look at contemporary society.
Until he began seriously making art, Herrera’s destructive lifestyle was leading him along the road that many Hispanic New Mexicans take – to imprisonment or death. After being involved in a serious car accident, however, he turned his life around and discovered that art could provide him with a means of making a living. It has now become a way of life.
This unique book presents works that until now have only been seen in private collections or museum vaults. Works by well known outsider artists and new discoveries express their personal interpretations of sexual desire and activity.
