ATLANTE II / GALANA ENMASCARADA, woodcut, Irving Herrera 2009
A commanding woodcut by Herrera from Oaxaca, transforming lucha libre into a sacred act of resistance. AGUILA NEGRA is among the most emblematic works in Irving Herrera’s six-part series of masked feminine icons. In this monumental woodcut, a powerful figure — nude, tattooed with lines of ink, and crowned with earrings shaped like nopales — holds her own gaze beneath a lucha libre mask.
