Universidad de la Habana - Comisión de Extensión Universitaria, Sección de Cine (cover design and artistic direction: Luis G. Fresquet (Chamaco)), "Arte 7, Año 1, No. 8, Abril Mayo 1971," April-May 1971. Offset print, magazine.

Issue No. 8 of arte 7 features a striking op-art influenced cover design that demonstrates the magazine's engagement with contemporary international graphic design movements. The cover employs dense horizontal stripes in coral-red and black creating a vibrating optical effect, overlaid with a purple diamond shape and a central circular aperture motif reminiscent of a camera iris. Within this iris appears a high-contrast red silkscreen image of multiple figures, suggesting cinema's capacity to frame and focus collective human experience. The geometric precision and psychedelic color palette reflect the experimental visual culture of the early 1970s while maintaining the magazine's focus on cinema as both optical technology and ideological instrument.

The editorial board for this double-month issue included Alberto Mora, José Doce Fleitas, Mario Naito López, Orlando Rojas Félix, Teresita Huerta, Alejandro Armengol Ríos, Eugenio Espinosa Martínez, and Bernardo Callejas Ríos, with editorial contributions from Pepe Rodríguez León, Agustín Gutiérrez Tomes, Manuel Mariño Betancourt, Luis Díaz Mijares, Ma. del Carmen Pino Glez, Eliane Cárdenas, Carlos Sánchez Fernández, Héctor Arazoza Rodríguez, and José Rojas Bez. The interior features a detailed technical illustration of an early cinema camera on a tripod, connecting the magazine's theoretical concerns with the material technology of filmmaking. Contents include Eugenio Espinosa on the internationalists, Carlos Sánchez on Hungarian cinema and the Miklós Jancsó lens group, Octavio Getino and Fernando Solanas on notes for decolonized critical judgment, and Alejandro Armengol on princes and pharaohs and pyramids, demonstrating arte 7's commitment to both international cinema culture and anti-imperialist film theory.
