Espíritu: September 16, 1995 through January 14, 1996 = Del 16 de septiembre de 1995 al 14 de enero de 1996 : Julio Galán ... [et al.]

Featuring Julio Galan & Graciela Iturbide, this handsome volume also includes the work of ten other contemporary Mexican artists who portray everyday life with a reverence reserved for religious ceremony. In the words of ESPIRITU essayist Luis Carlos Emerich, "The artistic Pluralism that surged in Mexico in the 1980s & intensified in the 1990s encouraged the expression of a multitude of creative meanings. Thus we observe that the works exhibited here abound in self-affirmations, but echo hauntingly the reverberations of Mexico's historical & cultural past." Artists include Alfredo Castaneda, Monica Castillo, Georgina Quintana, Adolfo Riestra, German Venegas & Nahum Zenil. Essay by Luis Carlos Emerich, 57 pages, 47 illustrations.
