Printed by Taller de Gráfica Mexicana, Mexico City. A very good impression of this large print with vibrant colors.

The current print is one of a handful of ambitious, large-scale prints, an iconic example of the Mixografía technique, invented by Luis Remba and Shaye Remba working closely with Tamayo in the 1970s and 1980s. The process involves an artist creating a model or maquette from any combination of materials (such as a monumental lithography stone) from which a sequence of plates is then cast and molded. Numbered 180/300.

Tamayo (1899-1991) worked with the Rembas to develop Mixografía in order to achieve more surface texture and depth in his printed images. Tamayo achieved extraordinary painterly effects of color and texture in these printed Mixografía; he once stated, “As the number of colors we use decreases, the wealth of possibilities increases.” Pereda 286.

Rufino Tamayo’s bold, symbolic paintings and prints unite elements of European modernism, Mexican folk art, and pre-Columbian ceramics. Tamayo filled his paintings and prints with emotive color palettes and blocky, pared-down compositions—riffs on both indigenous motifs and the Cubist figurations of Pablo Picasso and Georges Braque. Tamayo studied at the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas “San Carlos” in Mexico City before joining the department of ethnographic drawing at the city’s Museo Nacional de Arqueología. There, he immersed himself in the collection of pre-Columbian art. During his lifetime, Tamayo exhibited widely in Mexico City, New York, and Paris, among other cities. His works regularly sell for seven figures on the secondary market and belong in the collections of the Tate, the Museum of Modern Art, the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim, and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
