Scarce and vibrant portfolio reproducing screenprints by more than two dozen Latin American artists and printers, produced in 1974 by Museo Universitario de Ciencias y Arte (MUCA) — a major node in the Latin American avant-garde of the ‘60s, ‘70s, and ‘80s — and reflecting the Latin American avant-garde’s embrace of op-art and abstraction.

The portfolio includes prints by significant Mexican artists such as Vicente Rojo, Juan Salazar, Carlos Merida, Jose Luis Cuevas, Helen Escobedo, and others. Rojo (1932-2021) was a key member of the Mexican arts movement known as the Rupture Generation, and one of the most influential Mexican printers of the period. As the founder of Imprenta Madero, the seminal Mexican screen-printing studio, Rojo would steward an entire generation of Mexican graphic design.
