Rene suggested that I do something for the Farmworkers and the grape boycott. I had also been thinking of doing something in support of the boycott which had been ongoing for years. My idea for the poster was to remind people that the Mexican farmworkers who work so hard in the fields come from a rich cultural background and ought to be treated fairly and with respect. I decided to use a dark brown Aztec/god like figure as the main focal point. The squeezing of the grapes symbolizes the blood and sweat of the farmworkers. The intent of the poster was to keep the boycott going. As a poster, I think it was successful. It received a favorable response from the public and people continue to ask me about it today. Originally, the poster was printed as a silkscreen at the Galeria. It was then sent to the Farmworkers Union who reproduced it as an off-set litho and distributed it nationally. The Boycott Grapes poster is now part of the permanent collection of the Smithsonian Institute in Washington, D.C. and the National Hispanic Cultural Center in Albuquerque, New Mexico." |u http://www.xavierviramontes.com/history-prints-1.html. | |
