"Cops and Robbers: Drawings by Lucio Muniain"
2001-09-15 until 2001-11-04
ASU Art Museum
Tempe, AZ, USA

Lucio Muniain draws images taken from the newspaper of the violence of everyday life in his home town of Mexico City. He embellishes them with phrases from the street language, cynical observations that reveal his sense that we have become inured to the unspeakable because the forces of economics have made us nearly powerless.

Organized by Marilyn Zeitlin, Cops and Robbers will be installed in the Top Gallery of the Arizona State University Art Museum's Nelson Fine Arts Center location.
