Notes: In 1973 Tamayo was invited by a lithograph and printmaker, to collaborate on a suite of prints at Taller de Gráfica Mexicana in Mexico City. Mixografia® was developed in direct response to Tamayo’s ambitions. The new technique allowed Tamayo to create prints in relief, as well as registering the texture and very fine surface detail of the artwork. It would prove to be so successful that the entire workshop was renamed Mixografia.
