After traveling in Europe he returned to Mexico where he eventually founded the Instituto de Artes Gráficas de Oaxaca in 1988, and the Museo de Arte Contemporáneo de Oaxaca (MACO) in 1992, and several libraries. He was an activist in Oaxaca, protecting green spaces and preventing the construction of a McDonald’s in the Oaxaca Zócalo.
