Descripció:This article reviews the path of Grupo Grana: Taller de Estampa (1997-2000) in Costa Rica. This group of four women, friends, artists, graduates of the Univer-sity of Costa Rica, join an independent group to experiment and communicate through the art prints technique. Sila Chanto, Carolina Córdoba, Marcia Salas and Rebeca Alpízar, join forces to experiment beyond the limits of the graph es-tablished until that moment. As a group, they proposed a different work in which large formats, free and committed to the desire to express and create, predomi-nated. The creation of Grana responded to a reaction to the dominant patriarchal discourse in art and society in general. Consciously it was not defined that its work was feminist, nevertheless it was important that the group was conformed only by women.
