A rare chance to see the magnificent prints of Mexico’s Alfredo Zalce is on now in Colorado.
 
It is only six prints, but the impact of this exhibition of prints by Alfredo Zalce is big. Now through the end of April, the Dry Creek Art Press in Denver, Colorado, is presenting the prints with great excitement. Zalce, known predominantly for his colorful murals that illustrate his fervent social criticism, also produced wood-block prints that translate his imagery onto a smaller scale.
 
A contemporary of Diego Rivera and David Siqueiros, Zalce is widely considered a national treasure in Mexico and a museum was opened in 1971 in his honor.
