CLIMATE OF HOPE - ON WHEELS
Americas for Conservation + the Arts activates a custom 1948 Chevy delivery truck, the GraficoMovil, an homage to the complex and innovative history of printmaking, graphic arts, and the power of the arts as vehicles -- LITERALLY! -- for social and environmental justice.
​
Designed by Mexican artist and activist Artemio Rodríguez, GraficoMovil is a mural, gallery, printmaking studio and movie theater on wheels. GraficoMovil is designed to go to schools, parks, community art centers, museums, and other public institutions, to showcase everything it has to offer.
​
The GraficoMovil first came to the Front Range a year ago as part of the 3rd Americas Latino Eco Festival, taking the mobile community printmaking studio and built-in art history lesson to key locations, including the Museo de las Americas and the Denver Art Museum.
​
This 2016, local Denver artist Arturo García is taking the wheel of the GraficoMovil, with Rodríguez's blessing, for a series of Metro-area community outreach stops and printmaking workshops/activations. Watch our Events page for an activation near you!
