Description
Working for more than four decades in a variety of media, from drawings and paintings to murals and the silkscreen prints for which he is best known, Malaquas Montoya has pursued a singular artistic vision that promotes the dignity of labor, exposes assaults on human rights, and provokes resistance in the face of injustice. Terezita Romo offers a comprehensive, lavishly illustrated monograph on one of Chicano art's seminal artists, whose art has served as a voice for the disenfranchised peoples of the world.
