Rina Lazo and Arturo Bustos visit US in support of justice for NC tobacco farmworkers
 

 
FLOC recently brought two world famous artists from Mexico City to the Rivera Court in the Detroit Institute of Arts and the National Museum of Meixcan Art in Chicago for two gala fundraisers that promoted worker rights and justice for America's farmworkers. You still have a chance to participate through the purchase of a rare print.

Diego Rivera described Rina Lazo as "a painter of great talent. My beloved friend, my right hand, the best of my assistants." Her husband Arturo Garcia Bustos was one of the artists working closely with Frida Kahlo known as Los Fridos. Both artists worked with Diego for ten years and became accomplished muralists known throughout the Americas. 

In addition, Arturo founded the Taller de Gafica Popular (Popular Graphics Workshop) where he and other graphic artists produced prints in support of union struggles.
 
 

 
Bustos has created a special edition (left), signed and numbered print by called "Tierra en manos campesinas, (Earth in Farm Worker's Hands)" which he has donated to support FLOC's Campaign for Migrant Worker Justice. In truth, the print is worth more than the $100 we are selling it for.
 
Some unions and law firms are purchasing multiple prints and giving them as gifts to their board, special visitors or law partners. These are hand printed on heavy archival paper. Everyone who has purchased one has been overjoyed.

Please fill out the attached order form and send a check for $100 plus $10 for shipping and handling to:
Campaign for Migrant Worker Justice
1221 Broadway St.
Toledo, OH 43609
 
People who purchase multiple prints to be mailed to the same address at the same time will only be charged one $10 fee for shipping and handling.
