New at the Eiteljorg Museum of American Indians and Western Art! Explore Consejo Gráfico Nacional: Latino Printmakers in the United States during your next visit!

Consejo Gráfico Nacional highlights collaborative projects, powerful exhibitions, and educational outreach from printmakers across the country. Experience the art and cultural activism shaping contemporary art.

This exhibit highlights two distinct portfolios. La Huella Magistral: Homage to Master Printmakers recognizes the artists’ teachers: master printmakers who taught, mentored, or inspired them. Los Americans: Same = Different explores tensions of how American identity is defined across national borders.
