Posada's Art of Mexico
I have been part of a family that celebrates Dia de Los Muertos for 23 years. Posada's art is an intregal part of that celebration. And it tells the story of the Zapatista revolution. You cannot have Dia de Los Muertos without Posada's skeletons. This book is lasting treasure to remember that celebration each year and connect with it.

Great buy. Artwork great commentary
I teach English language arts/ humanities through a cultural lens using art as a vehicle to understand historic social issues. This book was spot on to decipher the political times Posada lived. Great buy. Artwork great commentary.

Posada prints!
I was familiar with the skeleton drawings long before I had even heard of Posada and after a trip to Mexico City a number of years ago I had to learn more. In the DF we saw a museum dedicated to cartoons and many of them were Posada's. The Dover book is a good introduction to his graphics. There is a lot of political humor in his work and even if you're not too interested in what the graphics subject matter you can still appreciate his skill. His artwork is probably known all over the worls although his name may not be. Now I need to find a good biography of the man.

This very inexpensive book is packed with Posada's most famous illustrations. A glorious artist capable of darkness and humor at a stroke.

Un excelente dibujante/grabador, pero un libro bastante flojo.
Un excelente dibujante/grabador, pero un libro bastante flojo. Las reproducciones tienen poca calidad. De todos modos, en formato digital no he encontrado nada mejor.
