A printed poster loudly proclaiming "Cuba: No Al Bloqueo" or "Cuba: No To The Blockade" with eight stamps celebrating the 25th anniversary of Cuban revolutionary Che Guevara's capture by U.S. backed Bolivian soldiers at bottom and further embellished with stamps and stickers of an anti United States, anti-war, anti-corporate, etc nature. Perhaps produced to accompany an exhibition at Galería Correo Viejo in Montevideo, Uruguay in 1992.
A Uruguayan artist, poet, and publisher, Padin edited the influential literary magazines Los Huevos del Plata and OVUM 10 which put him in contact with the international avant garde. A participant in mail art, his artistic and political endeavors landed him in jail in the late '70s and surveilled upon release til the mid '80s, deemed a threat by Uruguay's military dictatorship.
