Print Austin 2020

Krrrl went to check out Mexic-Arte Museum during Print Austin 2020 -- as several artists from both the Desert Triangle Print Carpeta and the Ambos Lados International Print Exchange had prints showing in the "Unseen Prints from the Mexic-Arte Museum Collection" exhibition.



First he made a stop in El Paso, to see the UTEP Department of Art Biennial Faculty Exhibition at the Rubin Center for Visual Arts, for the opening on January 30, 2020.  Manuel Guerra, a print professor at the University of Texas at El Paso, showed his painting collaborations with Francisco Delgado.


Several Desert Triangle artists were part of the "Unseen Prints from the Mexic-Arte Museum Collection" exhibition, that ran from December 13, 2019 to March 10, 2020.  There was an even bigger showing of prints from Taller 75 Grados of Mexico City, which produced a third of the prints for the Desert Triangle Print Carpeta.

Unseen Prints from the Mexic-Arte Museum Collection

A few of the Desert Triangle artists were represented in  Mexic-Arte Museum in Austin in the exhibition -- "Unseen Prints from the Mexic-Arte Museum Collection" -- which ran from December 13, 2019 to March 10, 2020.  Some of those prints were acquired when at the time of our Desert Triangle opening in January 2018.


December 2019 -- March 2020





The Desert Triangle artists included in this exhibition are:  Krrrl, Nani Chacon, Francisco Delgado, Los Dos, and both Manuel Guerra and Raul Monarrez are part of the included portfolio "Tejanos:  The Border Crossed Us."  Of course Taller 75 Grados produced a third of the Desert Triangle prints, and they are also well represented in this Mexic-Arte exhibition.
