Under the sponsorship of the Class of 1930, exhibitions of two Mexican artists and a third from Brazil were held concurrently in the Hopkins Center galleries last month. The funds presented to the Center were raised through increased class dues so 1930 could sponsor projects for the benefit of the College from time to time.
The artists whose works were shown in April were Jose Guadalupe Posada and Jose Clemente Orozco of Mexico and sculptor Mario Cravo of Brazil. More than thirty abstract sculptures by Cravo filled the main Jaffe-Friede Gallery. Orozco and Posada were represented by lithographs, etchings and engravings, many providing a biting comment on social and political conditions in Mexico.
