45 Contemporary Mexican Artists: A Twentieth-Century Renaissance (Stanford Art Series)
Dust jacket notes: "The most significant 'art outburst of our time' came to Mexico in the wake of the political revolution. A fresh wind of revolt swept through the musty classrooms releasing Mexican art from the bondage of academic style and method, leaving behind a new freedom of expression, a new recognition of the unparalleled beauty of the land, the people, and their way of life. Out went the plaster models, the stylized techniques borrowed from France and Italy. In their stead grew the new concept: open-air schools where students painted native scenes, native designs, native models. Pointing the way in this twentieth-century renaissance was Alfredo Ramos Martinez, founder of twenty-seven open-air schools and preacher of the gospel of freedom to students hungry for inspiration (see page 2). Under his tutelage and that of Dr. Atl (foster parent of the baby volcano, Paricutin, see page 11), Mexican artists adopted new styles, discovered new media, and resurrected the old. Orozco and Rivera introduced political issues; Montenegro and Best-Maugard chose the neglected Indian crafts and showed the world the simple strength of native design. Like the country itself, the art of Mexico is still developing, still offering inspiration for the artist who recognizes truth and beauty in Indian designs, erupting cornfields, and crumbling, flaking walls. In this book we meet the men and women who kindled and added fuel to the fire of Mexico's artistic reawakening. Most of them are even now in the very flowering of their genius."
