Loteria Jarocha
Lotería Jarocha assembles a series of linoleum-block prints created by Mexican-Canadian artist Alec Dempster after his return to his native Mexico in the mid-1990s. Discovering a lively genre of folk music from the Veracruz region, Dempster subsequently devoted himself to documenting this heritage with printmaking. The result is Lotería Jarocha, a collection of 60 expressive images and texts which catalogue Dempster’s encounter with the vibrant son jarocho culture of his birthplace. Order a copy |
