Diego Rivera

Diego Rivera was one of the most influential figures in the Mexican art and the Latino artistic circles as a whole. Born in Mexico, he was a devoted communist and this found expression in his artistic work, for which he became quite a controversial character despite originally only working on the production of chest of drawers. On the other hand, his paintings are truly extraordinary, combining the features of muralism and old Aztec approaches.

Modernism In Brazil

After the 1920s, the progressive modern thinking in Brazil had already started to influence the art circles in the society. People of art started realising that the new trends coming mainly from Europe and North America, were particularly rich in ideas and varieties, these modernism features were giving freedom to more people to express their understanding of Art.
This was the reason why in 1922 the first Week of Modernism was organised in Sao Paulo - a forum designed to More

Mexican and Latin American Muralism

By the 1930s, the Latin Art has been widely influenced the European arts culture and primarily by the Spanish and Russian art movements that were rapidly developing after the industrial revolutions. However, after the 30s of the 20th century, the Latin American art became aware of new approaches and techniques - a combination of its own typical culture mixing it with different political or social factors.

Mexico's Art Offerings

On a visit to Mexico I was struck by the amount of beautiful art objects that were available. Many were of low costs and were of materials that were easy to find. In particular I liked the tin art works. These were artworks made out of the thin metal of tin and puncuted and painted in order to create an image.

Often the tin artworks had been formed to frame objects and provided decorative additons to functional objects. The tin More

Latin art-Imaginas-Anna Maria Batistozzi

posted by admin in Uncategorized

Anna’s artwork here is representative of many Latin American art works. It is called imagina. It seems to have Latin American symbolism and is painted in a contemporary style. There are many colours and movements in the painting. It seems that the figures and backgrounds almost dances off the canvas. The colours are in light shades on a dark background, which goes far to explain why Latin American Art is used so frequently in American culture and media, through marketing More

This may be all good and well, but it’s hardly progress. The point is that watercolour is an incredible thing which can be used More
