Jointly, in 1991, the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco and the Centro Cultural/Arte Contemporáneo and Fundación Cultural Televisa, A.C., assembled a comprehensive survey of the prints and posters of Rupert García, one of the United States' most acclaimed Mexican American artists. This bilingual catalog documents that exhibit and García's challenging political imagery, inspired by the likes of Frida Kahlo and addressing such injustices as the imprisonment of Nelson Mandela, the U.S. invasion of Grenada, and the Kent State shootings of 1970. The exhibition presented 70 silkscreen prints, posters, etchings, and lithographs, 27 of which are reproduced here in color, and the book includes a color catalogue raisonné of García's work.
