While we were on vacation in Mexico City we had the oportunity to work for a week at Taller 75 Grados run by Master Printer Arturo Negrete. We first met Maestro Negrete while we vistited Oaxaca and were able to join him and his crew for a workshop where we were able to print Melanie’s Dia de los Muertos print. While at the taller we produced two four color screen printed editions that were finished during a live screen printing workshop and exhibit. THis live printing event is called “Taller en Vida” which the Maestro Negrete started to invite young artists to his studio to help revitalize screen printing with the new generation of artists and designers. For us it was really exciting to have the oportunity to work with a Master Printer that has work with some of Mexico’s top designers over that past 30 years.
