Mixografía Director Shaye Remba joined in from the gallery workshop, home to the equipment Tamayo used to make prints, including the monumental "Two Personages Attacked by Dogs" (1983). Along with exhibition curator Rachel Kaplan, Remba discusses the history and process of making a Mixografía print, which enabled Tamayo to incorporate greater texture and volume into his graphic output.
