DESCRIPTION:Méndez Rising: Spotlight on the revolutionary works of an artist for 
 social justice\nA Special Tribute to the Art of Leopoldo Méndez\nLeopoldo 
 Méndez (1902-1969) was a Mexican artist known for his political and 
 social-justice images, and was part of a revolutionary arts movement that 
 flourished in Mexico City from the 1930s through the ‘50s. Méndez, a 
 printmaker and engraver, devoted his career to political activism, refusing 
 fame or fortune. A San Francisco-Oakland Newspaper Guild member bought a 
 set of original signed Méndez prints in a Sixth Street secondhand store 
 for the price of a sandwich and donated them to the local. Now the Guild 
 has had the prints professionally restored for permanent display in the 
 union’s Natoma Street headquarters, and commissioned research honoring 
 the Méndez legacy in visual arts, cinema and labor history. \n A Panel 
 Discussion on Mendez’s art will begin at 7:00 (panelists to be 
 announced)\n RSVP to (415) 298-1335; check LaborFest website in case of 
 location changes: http://www.laborfest.net \nSee
