Diego Rivera's grandson Juan Rafael Coronel Rivera has worked as
editor of the magazines Punto Cero en Literatura, El Faro revista
de literatura y arte and M'hija, together with Carlos Jaurena. He
founded Kahlo-Coronel Fotogalería, Mexico’s first private
photo-gallery, in 1987. His collection of Mexican popular pottery
is the world’s most extensive, including more than 15,000 pieces
from the 16th century to the present day. He has curated more than
100 exhibitions for art galleries, museums, and biennials and has
written 71 publications.
Luis-Martín Lozano is an art historian specializing in the study of
the creative processes of modernist artists in Mexico and Latin
America. He is the recipient of a Fulbright scholarship and has
conducted extensive research on the work of both Frida Kahlo and
Diego Rivera, as well as publishing widely on both artists. Lozano
was formerly the director of the Museo de Arte Moderno in Mexico,
and has been a guest curator for many art institutions in the
United States, Europe, Asia, Latin America, and particularly in
Mexico.
This splendid edition from TASCHEN comes as a refreshing reminder
of how sociologically, politically and artistically significant
Diego Rivera's work is.
*Force One*
Monumental in every way... The great pleasure of this book is that
you can pore over every detail of the artist's work, the details
you inevitably miss if you see the works in situ.
