Here's what Vallen said about his artwork:

"Printed in 1983, the posters depict a military 'calaca' - Mexican/Chicano slang for skeleton - along with text that serves as a mocking inversion of the peace movement's slogan, 'Bread Not Bombs.'

Originally a street poster, the print was included in the 1984 traveling antiwar exhibit, End of the Rainbow, organized by the Los Angeles based performance art group, Sisters of Survival (S.O.S.). The show toured the U.S. and Europe and included works by artists Leon Golub, Nancy Spero, Jerry Kearns, and Judy Baca."
