Catalogue Note
Including two prints each by José Luis Cuevas, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Rufino Tamayo Perro de Luna and Chacal (Pereda 135 and 136) and Francisco Zúñiga
Jerry Brewster was an early advocate for Latin American art in New York, with particular energy devoted towards printmaking. He was well known and highly regarded as a publisher and dealer, and wrote the definitive catalogue raisonné for Zúñiga graphics. Brewster was the exclusive publisher of Zúñiga prints, including The Mexican Masters Suite, and this portfolio was the last remaining impression in his possession.
