Antonio Caballero: Las Rutas de la Pasión, Mexico 1960's-1970's

Antonio Caballero: Las Rutas de la Pasión, Mexico 1960's-1970's at Sikkema Jenkins & Co. in New York. "...During the 1960s and 1970s, Antonio Caballero was a prolific maker of Mexican fotonovelas, a kind of photography-based graphic novel form, filled with soap opera-style narratives of love and betrayal. By taking them out of their original sequenced context and blowing them up to large scale, this show takes these dated pop culture images and re-characterizes them, highlighting their entertaining retro-melodrama."
