Mexico and the People: Revolutionary Printmaking and the Taller De Gráfica Popular Description During its most turbulent and formative years of the twentieth century, Mexico witnessed decades of political frustration, a major revolution, and two World Wars. By the late 1900s, it emerged as a modernized nation, thrust into an ever-growing global sphere. The revolutionary voices of Mexico’s people that echoed through time took root in the arts and emerged as a collective force to bring about a new self- awareness and change for their nation. Mexico’s most distinguished artists set out to challenge an overpowered government, propagate social-political advancement, and reimagine a stronger, unified national identity. Following in the footsteps of political printmaker José Guadalupe Posada and the work of the Stridentist Movement, artists Leopoldo Méndez and Pablo O’Higgins were among the founders who established two major art collectives in the 1930s: Liga de Escritores y Artistas Revolucionarios (LEAR) and El Taller de Gráfica opularP (TGP).

  • Family, The, Rufino Tamayo
    Tamayo, Rufino, The Family, Accession # 60.4 North America, Mexico oil on canvas 1936 G-376 Social/Historical Context Mexican writer Octavio Paz describes his country as having an “invisible history”--specifically, the Aztec model of domination, ritualism and human sacrifice, which continues to affect events and attitudes in the present. Mexico is part modern and part ancient, half Indian and half Spanish, Paz says. “Duality is not something added, artificial or exterior: it is our constituent reality.” No Mexican artist has better expressed that reality than Rufino Tamayo. While some of his subjects and his choice of colors were informed by Mexican art and culture, his flattened compositions and abstract forms derive from European modernism. Tamayo was at odds with the politically motivated narrative paintings of the Mexican muralists —Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros—whose work was shaped by the 1910 Mexican Revolution, and the continued belief that art should serve revolutionary ideals. Tamayo sought to create a more universal art form based on modernist principles. "I had difficulties with the Muralists, to the point that they accused me of being a traitor to my country for not following their way of thinking," said Mr. Tamayo. "But my only commitment is to painting. That doesn't mean I don't have personal political positions. But those positions aren't reflected in my work. My work is painting." Tamayo said, “my country is tragic. It is tragic because of a long history of foreign domination since the Spaniards. Such circumstances can hardly be expected to produce happiness.

  • Rufino Tamayo and the Cultural Politics of the Mexican Couple
    Transnational Transitions Transnational Transitions: Rufino Tamayo and the Cultural Politics of the Mexican Couple Francesca Ferrari New York University In 1926 Mexican artist Rufino Tamayo inaugurated his international artistic career with his first individual shows, one in Mexico City and the other in New York City.1 Peculiarly, the young artist included in both shows two works bearing the same title and subject matter. The painting Man and Woman (Figure 1), today in the collection of the Philadelphia Museum of Art, was showcased as an example of the artist’s oeuvre in a rented storefront at Avenida Madero 66 in Mexico City in April of that year. The homonymous print (Figure 2), one impression of which is preserved at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, was included in the solo exhibition held at the Weyhe Gallery in New York City just six months later, decorating the frontispiece of the show’s brochure. Figure 1: Rufino Tamayo, Man and Woman, 1926, oil on canvas, 69.8 x 70.2 cm. Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia. 1 Although he never permanently settled in the United States, Tamayo became an active player in the New York City art scene, as explored in the recent retrospective Tamayo: The New York Years at the Smithsonian American Art Museum. See Tamayo: The New York Years, ed. Carmen E. Ramos (Washington, DC: Smithsonian American Art Museum, 2017). 2 University of Toronto Art Journal, Spring 2019 Ferrari Figure 2: Rufino Tamayo, Man and Woman, 1926, woodcut, 25.1 x 25.2 cm.
