Graciela Iturbide Francisco Toledo Alejandro de Ávila

Graciela Iturbide, Francisco Toledo, and Alejandro de Ávila were active collaborators represented in museum collections by photographs and prints dating to 2002. Seven works associated with these artists are currently held in the collection of the National Gallery of Art. The majority of the represented works are photographs, though two high-quality prints are also documented.

The collaboration focused on botanical themes and landscapes, with works such as Garden and multiple versions of Jardín Botánico de Oaxaca, México (Oaxaca Botanical Garden, Mexico) preserved in collections. These works reflect an engagement with natural environments during their active period. The seven documented works in the database establish their credibility as museum-quality artists, primarily recognized for their photographic and print output from that era.

The collection of the National Gallery of Art preserves the entire known documented output of this collaboration. While their works are not yet widely available in the public domain, the documentation of their photographs and prints provides a reference for scholarship. Further research into the individual careers of Graciela Iturbide, Francisco Toledo, and Alejandro de Ávila would contextualize these collaborative photographs and prints within their broader oeuvres.
