Vladimir Cora - La Ultima Asemblea

This spectacular serigraph was published by Matthew Cruz Fine Art, and printed by Talon Graphics. It was done on a 640 gram archival Lan Aquarelle paper. It was printed with over 100 screens, over a period of 14 weeks.

These works are from the Remarque edition of only XII. Each one has a hand drawn remarque by Cora. Only 4 are available anywhere, and we just acquired them. They are nearly impossible to find.

The original edition sold out in two weeks. The few remarque prints available at that time, were sold at $4,800 each. These have been with the publisher since 2003. Nothing from this edition is available, anywhere in the world, much less the remarque prints. The image is 30" x 50" and the actual sheet is 40" x 60". This is the most monumental graphic, of this great Mexican Master's lifetime. One of these prints is in the MOLAA, as well as the LACMA collection, but from the edition of 200.

This work is available for pickup, but since it cannot be rolled, and needs to remain flat, with excellent packing, shipping within the US will $600. No international shipping is available, for this work. 

His career is on the ascendancy, and it appears as if the art community, critics, museums, and collectors are beginning to acknowledge his significance. After all, it was Tamayo who asked Bernard Lewin to represent this young man, when few knew of his existence. He was a student of Tamayo at the time, and he was very fond of Cora's work. Lewin did very well with his work, and now, the same applies to several other galleries in the US, and in Mexico. He has enjoyed over 150 shows worldwide, and is in the permanent collection of many significant museums. Very few works from this period by Cora are presently available anywhere in the world.

This work is nicely framed. If shipped internationally it will be shipped without the framing.

Make Sure You Read the Vintage Edition with the Afterword
I initially purchased this book to read for two reasons: First, it was written by William Styron, who wrote the great "Sophie's Choice;" and second, it won a Pulitzer Prize. It was only after I was into the book that I learned that this vintage sixties' book was the subject of a major controversy over the depiction of the title character, Nat Turner. I learned that Styron openly acknowledged fictionalizing large portions of Turner's life, including his motivations for leading the slave revolt. I also learned that Styron's largely fictionalized portrait of Turner outraged many black leaders of the time. Rather than painting Turner (entirely) as a hero, called to action by the injustices of slavery, Styron created a darker picture of a man fixated on religion, a vision of himself as a prophet, and frustrated by lust and desire (particularly, for a young, blond haired white girl). As I read the book, I search my own feelings, and felt that if I were black, I would certainly have objected similarly. We all need our heroes, who become much larger as symbols than they could ever be as people. For the sake of those that come after, such icons are perhaps entitled to be treated with a greater level of sensitivity and care--even at the cost of literary restraint. It is here that the story gets fascinating. After I finished the novel, I read Styron's Afterword. Styron was truly stung by the criticism and in the Afterword, provided an elegant and persuasive defense of his writings. While I will not say that Styron entirely changed my position, he definitely made me see the other side of the argument. The dialogue between Styron and his critics not only allows the reader to consider one of the great social and political issues of our time, but permits the reader a unique insight into the thinking of a great writer--and suffices, in and of itself, as a reason for reading this novel. MAKE SURE YOUR VERSION OF THE NOVEL HAS THIS AFTERWORD. Putting the issue aside as to the real "Nat Turner," the novel itself is beautifully written. The characters are fully developed and believable. The description of the system of slavery and the relationship between whites and blacks feel very real, and very accurate. Styron shows us good and bad of each race, and how all of them are bound by the system of slavery and their actions directly the product of it.

I loved this book.
I read this book for my book club and I thought it was beautifully written. It has stayed with me for weeks now. I love when a book does that. I'm glad I wasn't swayed by controversy. I had no problem with the fact that the author was white and using a black voice(maybe because I'm white - but I do like when an author gets the voice right and I thought Styron did that). I didn't understand the charges of racism after reading the book. Sometimes I wonder if, what some people find uncomfortable, they label as racist or sexist or whatever. Anyway, I would encourage everyone to read this book because it gave me a fresh awareness of a huge part of U.S. history, it reminded me that there are always gray areas to consider and it was a great novel. You might think so too.

Nat Turner was NOT happy
I think Mr Styron may have took some liberties with Nat Turner's "orientation" without the research or data to support his opinion.

A book for the ages...historically concise and horrific at once
William Styron, a gifted writer outdid himself with this book. His concise detail gives us an inside view on the depth of feeling employed by the subject of this book. The book while concise and tender pulls us in as these events take place. As Mailer delves deeper into the mind of Nat Turner, we cannot help but feel a sense of the suffering this man endured and this is what gives us perspective into this tragedy as it unfolds. A compelling masterpiece of literature.
