UNITED STATES PHILADELPHIA • Philadelphia Museum of Art • Ongoing |
 |
Major modern Mexican artists such as José Clemente Orozco, Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and Rufino Tamayo continue to win broad acclaim for their murals and paintings, however, less attention has been paid to the wide-ranging impact these artists and their contemporaries had on the world of printmaking. This exhibition examines these vital contributions with 125 prints and posters by fifty Mexican and foreign-born artists.
