A gallery exhibition focusing on Mexico's Day of the Dead.

USC Fisher Gallery presents an exhibition related to the Mexican Day of the Dead Celebration. It features a number of José Guadalupe Posada's prints from USC's Boeckmann Center at the Doheny Memorial Library. In addition, the exhibition includes a number of prints by Francisco Toledo, Mexico's leading contemporary artist, and James Ensor. These artists, chosen by the Maestro Francisco Toledo himself, reveal affinities that he feels play a role in his art, relating especially, in his opinion, to the theme of death. This show is a collaboration between USC's Fisher Gallery, the Boeckmann Center, and IAGO, the Instituto Arte Grafico Oaxaca.

An exhibition focusing on Mexico's Day of the Dead also opens today in USC Fisher Gallery's Hertha and Walter Klinger Gallery, Quinn Wing.

Please be mindful that the University will be closed from Thursday, November 28 until December 2, 2002 in observance of the Thanksgiving holiday and that most exhibits will not be open during this period of time.
