"An artist who has won international acclaim, Francisco Zuñiga has long pursued an independent course, creating works of power, vitality and seriousness. This monograph is the first complete study of an important body of lithographs by one of the Americas' foremost artists.
"Born in Costa Rica, Zuñiga has lived in Mexico since 1936. First working exclusively in sculpture and drawing, his interests have gradually grown to include involvement with the lithographic medium. Represented in museums throughout the world, Zuñiga has been an example to many younger artists. He has described his work as ‘an attempt to find through the archetype of the eternal feminine . . . an interior life . . . a relation to reality with the power to move.'"
