Diego
Rivera: A Retrospective
by Linda Downs (Introduction), Cynthia Newman Helms (Editor)
Book Description: A celebration of a renowned artist and political
activist.
Diego Rivera, in a career that spanned sixty years, produced some of
the most distinctive and socially powerful works in modern art. Rivera
was very much a twentieth-century renaissance man. He was a painter, printmaker,
sculptor, book illustrator, one of the first collectors of pre-Columbian
art, as well as a political activist. In both the United States and Mexico,
Rivera's monumental frescos gave life to revolutionary themes, often offending
the critics as well as the public. In New York's Rockefeller Center, for
instance, his murals were destroyed because of public outrage over their
strongly pro-communist content. This volume illustrates Rivera's life and
work from his early years at the Mexican Academy of San Carlos and studies
in Spain; his subsequent eleven-year sojourn in Paris in the first part
of this century; to his efforts to establish a truly national Mexican style
in the murals for which he is most famous. Accompanying Rivera's work are
essays by noted scholars reevaluating his place in the history of modern
art. 200 color plates, 325 black-and-white illustrations.
