"New
World Odor"
Mark Vallen 1991
Silkscreen - 23" x 29"
The
silkscreen print New World Odor was included
in the exhibit, JUST ANOTHER POSTER? - Chicano
Graphic Arts in California, a historic collection
of Chicano artworks from the 70's to the present that
traveled to museums across the US.
Artist's
statement:
"My
print draws inspiration from the traditional iconography
of the Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) celebrations
of Mexico. Created in 1991, my print was meant as
a comment on the realignment of power in the world.
The new epoch began with the collapse of the Soviet
Union and the bombing of Iraq."
