Gonzalo Espinosa at 75 Grados

"Duena de las Chichis"


After seeing what we printed at Taller 75 Grados, Gonzalo Espinosa of Tucson flew down to Mexico City in July, to make his print there:


Arturo Negrete, director of Taller 75 Grados,
and Gonzalo show off the final masterpiece










Gonzalo packed his edition of 50 prints
into his portfolio,
and flew back to Tucson

Gonzalo created many beautiful tile murals
in South Tucson


 Update (Sept 2016)  Gonzalo created some "relief prints" with his edition :






Gonzalo's print makes it to the Sheol Gallery in Puerto Vallarta, in January, 2017.






Update (Oct 2017):  "Taller sin Miedo" burns, moving to Mexico

This 21st century print momentum started from "Taller sin Miedo," formed by Gonzalo Espinosa, with Joshua Woodhall and Karl Whitaker at the Sculpture Resource Center back in 2012.  Then Gonzalo moved the studio to his house in South Tucson.  Unfortunately it caught fire in Oct, 2017.  However, Gonzalo plans to continue, fearlessly, bringing the print taller to Puerto Vallarta.
