Diego Rivera's America revisits a historical moment when the famed
muralist and painter, more than any other artist of his time,
helped forge Mexican national identity in visual terms and imagined
a shared American future in which unity, rather than division, was
paramount. This volume accompanies a major exhibition highlighting
Diego Rivera's work in Mexico and the United States from the early
1920s through the mid-1940s. During this time in his prolific
career, Rivera created a new vision for the Americas, on both
national and continental levels, informed by his time in both
countries. Rivera's murals in Mexico and the U.S. serve as points
of departure for a critical and contemporary understanding of one
of the most aesthetically, socially, and politically ambitious
artists of the twentieth century. Works featured include the
greatest number of paintings and drawings from this period reunited
since the artist's lifetime, presented alongside fresco panels and
mural sketches. This catalogue serves as a guide to two crucial
decades in Rivera's career, illuminating his most important themes,
from traditional markets to modern industry, and devoting attention
to iconic paintings as well as works that will be new even to
scholars-revealing fresh insights into his artistic process.
