Jose Clemente Orozco (Joe R and Teresa Lozano Long Series in Latin American and Latino Art and Culture): Graphic Work Book

Anita Brenner's look at Mexican art throughout history is a must-read for any student of Mexican art. Her poetic description of art and culture is a window into the post-revolutionary period of the 1920s which has since defined so much of the nation's self-identity. Her writings helped popularize the Mexican muralists in the U.S. and elsewhere. She chronicled the rise of these giants and the larger artistic and ideological world they walked in, contributing to the new definition of what it meant to be "Mexican". Brenner had a significant hand in defining the Mexican Renaissance.
