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.

This volume is the biography and collection of works of Mexican painter and muralist Diego Rivera, for the years 1921 to 1957. This volume -- v. 2 of a two volume set -- covers Rivera's return to Mexico in the wake of that country's tumultuous and transformative revolution. He married fellow Mexican artist Frida Kahlo in 1929, and their tempestuous marriage got to be as famous as their art. In the 1930s and '40s Rivera worked in the United States and Mexico, and many of his paintings drew controversy. His 1933 mural for the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan featured a portrait of Communist Party leader Lenin, the resulting uproar led to his dismissal and to the mural's official destruction in 1934. Similarly, a 1948 mural for the Hotel de Prado in Mexico that included the words "God does not exist" was covered and held from public view for nine years. Rivera's talent for historical murals and his tributes to earthy folk traditions made him one of the most influential artists in the Americas and one of Mexico's most beloved painters. This book is devoted to a visual exploration of Rivera's reflections on art. It presents a selection of texts and quotations by Rivera alongside images created by the painter himself or by artists who in one way or another gained a place in his memory.

Art historian David Craven presents a sustained and highly original interpretation of Diego Rivera's particular version of "epic modernism," while offering a probing and coherent account of the artist's lifelong political activism. Drawing on both new primary documents and the best of recent secondary literature, Craven considers what Rivera's work in the public sphere has come to signify, and examines the artist's ongoing legacy for "post-colonial" discourse ; The study features a careful formal analysis of Rivera's most important paintings. Besides addressing his rediscovery of pre-Columbian art, Craven analyzes the artist's use of narrative, iconographic programs and the fresco technique for most well-known mural cycles, which continued to draw structurally on his early avant-garde work

Known for his grand public murals, Diego Rivera (1886-1957) is one of Mexico's most revered artists. His paintings are marked by a unique fusion of European sophistication, revolutionary political turmoil, and the heritage and personality of his native country. Based on extensive interviews with the artist, his four wives (including Frida Kahlo), and his friends, colleagues, and opponents, The Fabulous Life of Diego Rivera captures Rivera's complex personality—-sometimes delightful, frequently infuriating and always fascinating—-as well as his development into one of the twentieth century's greatest artist.

This thesis focuses on several works of art created by Diego Rivera for United States patrons in the early twentieth century. Although these U.S. art patrons and Rivera supported the idea of hemispheric unity, the artist’s viewpoint did not always concur with that of the state-side capitalists. Rivera wished to use Pan-American iconography to idealize the indigenous cultures of Latin America, specifically Mexico. The United States capitalists wanted to use art patronage of Latin American artists to instigate a new brand of imperialism – American Imperialism. Nevertheless, through his murals and other projects, Rivera challenged the ideological foundations of the patrons who hired him. This study examines the artist’s visual language that he developed while working in the United States which dealt with the idea of hemispheric, or Pan-American, unity. .
