Several contemporary artists have continued the tradition of printmaking in Mexico. Here, the curator would like to focus on two artists who due to their distinct life experiences are continuing to influence the future artists to come through their artistic creations. I chose for this exhibition some works of the following artists, Artemio Rodriguez of La Mano Press and Sergio Sánchez Santamaría, whose work is inspired by the last generation of the artists from the Taller Grafica Popular (TGP) co-founder Leopoldo Méndez (1902-1969).
