Note: | Mariana Yampolsky: A major Mexican photographer, printmaker and painter of the twentieth century, Mariana Yampolsky graduated with her Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Chicago in 1945. Fascinated with both Mexican art and culture she immediately moved to Mexico City and enrolled in la Escuela de Pintura y Escultura and joined the outstanding graphic arts workshop, Taller de Grafica Popular (TGP). She worked there creating lithographs and linocuts until 1958 with such artists as Leopoldo Mendez, Alfredo Zalce, Pablo O'Higgins, Alberto Beltran, Luis Arenal, Francisco Dosamantes, and Jose Ignacio Aguirre. Mariana Yampolsky was also the first woman elected to the Taller de Grafica's board of Directors. It is probable that Ninos trabajando por la Paz (Children working for Peace) was created and printed there. |

Since 1955 the prints and photographs of Mariana Yampolsky have been the subject of international exhibitions in Tokyo, Zurich, Milan, Berlin, London, Chicago, New York and elsewhere. | |
