Luis Strempler Vivanco

Luis Strempler Vivanco (Mexico City, 1928 - 2002) began his artistic training by taking painting classes with Dr. Atl and later studied at the Escuela Nacional de Artes Plásticas (National School of Fine Arts) from 1944 to 1947. In January of 1947, he participated in a group exhibition alongside painters Luis García Robledo and Nicolás Moreno Orduña at the pergola of the central park in Tuxtla Gutiérrez, Chiapas. Throughout his career, Strempler created several stage designs and three murals.

Although his work is documented in books and exhibition catalogs from the 1950s and 1960s, his legacy has been largely forgotten, as no exhibitions dedicated to his work have been organized for some time.
