” brings together more than 150 paintings, frescoes, and drawings, as well as film projections of public murals. But the show isn’t a retrospective. Rather, it focuses only on the artist’s work from the 1920s to the mid-1940s—the most fruitful period of his career, when he worked across both his home country and the United States.
“For art historians or people who think they know Diego Rivera, there are many many surprises,” Oles said.The exhibition is branded as the first to organize Rivera’s output by theme. Individual galleries are dedicated to the painter’s preferred subjects , as well as places from which he worked, like Tehuantepec and Detroit.
The exhibition culminates with a presentation of Rivera’s last U.S. mural, and his biggest portable example: a 22-by-74-foot fresco painted for San Francisco’s Golden Gate International Exposition in 1940.Called, and more commonly referred to as, the ten-panel piece condenses into a single visions of pastoral splendor and urban sprawl, feats of athleticism and art, and masters of machine and craft.
