For our newest silkscreen limited edition print, Javier Moreno one of Puerto Rico's top woodblock printmakers has designed this new exclusive print as satire to the Puerto Rican political race and elections where we get 2 bad candidates from 2 bad parties as our choices, both corrupt, both inept and both destroying our Island since democracy was implemented in this territory of the USA which has basically the same "democratic" alternatives.
Moreno presents his take with this image that carries a lot of history as Edwin Rosskam created a print titled VOTE for the Taller de Cinema y Grafica de Parques y Recreo Publico to promote and educate the people on how to vote back in 1949 for the Island's first elections.
Later Antonio Martorell released a print for Taller Alacran (Barajas Series) in 1968 to make a comment on our political situation (which is still the exact same in 2024) where he designed a cartel with the word vote on the water tank of a vintage toilet with the letter T falling into the bowl as to say that we are voting for shitty candidates or that no matter what how we vote its still going to be the same shit selected to run the country all with red and blue colors which are the colors of the 2 main parties as well as the color of the American and Puerto Rican Flag.
Today we introduce Javier Moreno's newest interpretation of this iconic image hoping to let all generations to cone that we have always been in the same boat and nothing has changed in 80 years.
The print is 18"x22", 3 color silkscreen, signed and numbered to 60.
Cost is $100 plus shipping.
