The Taller de Grafica Popular is a characteristically Mexican enterprise, a Workshop for Popular Graphic Art. It was founded seven years ago by a group of younger artists. Artists Leopoldo Méndez and Alfredo Zalce were the main instigators. These artists believed that cooperative work raises the stature of the individual artist. This summer Leopoldo Méndez made a new lithograph, for the annual Salón de Grabado of a private gallery in Mexico City. It referred to the attempt on the life of Avila Camacho, President of Mexico during 1940-46.
