Soft cover. Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. A beautifully illustrated in-depth study of the most important North American work by the best-known Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera. Early in the Depression, Diego Rivera was commissioned by Edsel Ford to create a series of murals in the gallery of the Detroit Institute of Arts, giant frescos whose theme would be America s industrial might. This volume studies the astonishing results and gives us a remarkably close look at Diego and his wife, Frida Kahlo. Rivera s Detroit Industry murals are one of this country s greatest treasures. In addition to providing full coverage and analysis of the murals, the book includes chapters on the murals planning and antecedents, Rivera s working methods (which can be read as a primer on frescos), Diego and Frida s lives for their nine months in Detroit, and the public s dramatic response to the strong socialist/communist themes in the works. About the Author: Linda Bank Downs is executive director of the College Art Association. She formerly served as curator of education at the Detroit Institute of Arts and head of education at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC.

In a career that spanned sixty years, Diego Rivera produced some of the most distinctive and socially powerful works in modern art. Rivera was, in a real sense, a twentieth-century renaissance man. He was a painter, printmaker, sculptor, book illustrator, one of the first collectors of pre-Columbian art, and a political activist. In both the United States and Mexico, Rivera's monumental frescos gave life to revolutionary themes, often offending 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. Throughout his mature works, on this continent and abroad, Rivera was a champion of the oppressed." - Publisher. *** CONTENTS: Introduction, by Linda Downs; Diego Rivera (1886-1957): a chronology of his art, life and times, by Laurance P.
