DE VIVA VOZ, CON EL PINCEL Y LA PLUMA
DE VIVA VOZ, CON EL PINCEL Y LA PLUMA : LOS NUEVOS VALORES EN LA PLÁSTICA : LA JOVEN ARQUITECTURA, LA JOVEN PINTURA Y LA JOVEN ESCULTURA : CONFERENCIAS PRONUNCIADAS EN 1955 EN EL COLEGIO NACIONAL
RIVERA, DIEGO
Artist and noted muralist Diego Rivera (Mexico 1886-1957) became a Founding Member of El Colegio Nacional on May 15, 1943. The book includes a link to eight of the lectures he gave free of charge there in 1955. They "confirm the muralist's love for the avant-garde, because in his disquisitions to tie the battle against formalism (sent from Moscow), Rivera manages to make some formidable juggling." (HKB Translation) --Page 17. These inedited conferences are an historical testimony of the painter's approach and conclusions regarding a series of studies he carried out for several years as a member of that institution.
