Now on view in our Conversations Gallery—Human Rights Portfolio / Carpeta Derechos Humanos The special feature is a collaboration between SOS Art and Taller Burro Press in Oaxaca, Mexico. The purpose of the portfolio is to challenge artists to create images and messages around human rights through a collaborative process across different cultures. The portfolio consists of woodcuts by 12 Oaxaca artists and 12 Cincinnati-area artists, each focusing on a specific human right. The artists also supplied personal comments on their theme and a biography. Free admission. SOS ART and Taller Burro Press, which printed the portfolio, split the proceeds of its sale. SOS ART intends to use the funds regionally for art exhibitions, workshops, and educational programs. . . . .
