Works by prominent Mexican and American graphic artists will be on display at De Arte Magick Galleria, Easton, beginning Feb. 13. The exhibition, entitled Visiones Graficas, exemplifies cultural and creative exchange and collaboration. It is scheduled to run through March 20.
It is directed by Curlee Raven Holton, associate professor of art at Lafayette College and director of the College’s Experimental Printmaking Institute (EPI), and Karima Muyaes, a painter and graphic artist from Mexico City.
