'Art in the Time of the Pandemic'

"A special accolade to our friend Jim Covarrubias, who not only has been hard at work as always, but addressed with a series of inspiring new paintings the heartbreaking issue of family separations at the border. International organizations describe it as a crime against humanity. Our history has enough dark areas, now documented daily. Is this how we will be remembered?"

Jim Covarrubias: Adorning hallways of the Senate

Jim Covarrubias: Adorning hallways of the Senate

Written by Ben Giles.

If you’ve ever wandered beyond the first floor of the Arizona Senate, you’ve likely seen the work of Jim Covarrubias, a Phoenix-based artist whose paintings have adorned the hallways of the second and third floors for more than a year. Covarrubias, whose downtown Phoenix studio is full to the brim of paintings, has a wide variety to choose from, and has curated and adjusted the work on display in the Senate over that time. He has plans to feature other artists as well, with a gallery planned for the walls outside Senate President Andy Biggs’ office, to be displayed as early as in May.
