La U.S.A. and the Three Diablos
title La U.S.A. and the Three Diablosdescription Intaglio on paper, 18 in. x 24 in. The New Immigration: Ten Etchings Portfolio by Self Help Graphics, Los Angeles, CA and Galería Sin Fronteras, Austin, TX. A man's head becomes a part of the land as he smiles and looks at the "three diablos" to the right. He has a cap with stars and a bald eagle on his head. There are people running across the land and people picking vegetables in a field in the foreground. In 1988, Sister Karen Boccalero, founder of Self Help Graphics in Los Angeles, and Dr. Gilberto Cárdenas, founder of Galería Sin Fronteras in Austin, co-organized this portfolio of ten etchings by five artists. The prints, sponsored by Self Help Graphics and co-published by Galería Sin Fronteras, were produced at Taller Romero in Mexico City by printer Renato Esquivel Romero. According to Cárdenas, this series pays “homage to the perseverance and dignity of the new Latino immigrants as they struggle with the transition into American society.” He also said that they are a reminder of “the role that immigration plays in enriching the economic vitality of our society and the contributions that the immigrants and their children will have in making American society a better community for tomorrow—a community ‘sin fronteras.’” Each of the five selected artists presented a distinctive perspective on politics, immigration, and the border.artist/creator Limón, Leosubject Eagles Immigration Immigrants Demons Demonios Devil Diablo Workers Figurative art Animals in art Vegetables Stars Estrellas Running Intaglio Prints Allegory Life and Experiences in the U.S./Mexico Borderlands (exhibition)contributor Mexic-Arte Museum (MAM) -
