An artist who needs no introduction. Tamayo shares the limelight together with Diego Rivera as Mexico's greatest painters of the twentieth century. But Tamayo, like Rivera, was also a prolific and dedicated printmaker. His last series of lithographs, which he made at KYRON at the age of ninety, show new zeal and fresh, new, restless imagery combined with a dynamic exploration of graphic/color affinities.
