Description
Photograph was edited for publication purposes
Photograph article dated November 14, 1963 reads, "Feliciano Bejar, one of Mexico's leading artists, rebels against the 'new school' of Mexican artists. The 39-year-old artist, currently exhibiting in Orlando's Gallery, 17037 Ventura Blvd., Encino, contends that the 'new school' of Mexican artist is 'obsessed with expressions of hate.' While his contemporaries paint dead people, dead rats and decrepit women, 'Chano,' as he's called by his friends and admirers, confines his work to expressions of 'love, happiness and friendship.'"
