Gallery of Mexican Art V oices ofMerico /January • March, 1995 41 Gallery of Mexican Art n the early the 1930s, Carolina and Inés Amor decided to give Mexico City an indispensable tool for promoting the fine arts in whatI was, at that time, an unusual way. They created a space where artists not only showed their art, but could also sell directly to people who liked their work. It was a place which gave Mexico City a modem, cosmopolitan air, offering domestic and international collectors the work of Mexico's artistic vanguard. The Gallery of Mexican Art was founded in 1935 by Carolina Amor, who worked for the publicity department at the Palace of Fine Arts before opening the gallery. That job had allowed her to form close ties with the artists of the day and to learn about their needs. In an interview, "Carito" —as she was called by her friends— recalled a statement by the then director of the Palace of Fine Arts, dismissing young artists who did not follow prevailing trends: "Experimental theater is a diversion for a small minority, chamber music a product of the court and easel painting a decoration for the salons of the rich." At that point Carolina felt her work in that institution had come to an end, and she decided to resign. She decided to open a gallery, based on a broader vision, in the basement of her own house, which her father had used as his studio. At that time, the concept of the gallery per se did not exist. The only thing approaching it was Alberto Misrachi's bookstore, which had an The gallery has a beautiful patio. area reserved for the sale of paintings. 42 Voices of Mexico /January • March, 1995 In 1932, the master lithographer Chapultepec Castle.

Today there are many galleries throughout Mexico. Some open without knowledge or experience in the art business, and therefore have to close in short order, causing a loss of prestige for the artists they promoted. Others, with a purely commercial orientation, lack both the interest and talent necessary to sustain a gallery and support artists. The GAM has maintained the same level of care and professionalism since its foundation. Today it is located at Gobernador Rafael Rebollar No. 43 in Mexico City's Colonia San Miguel In contrast with its beginnings, the gallery's buyers are now basically Mexican. .

  • La Vendedora De Frutas Olga Costa Representó Una Parte De La Diver- Sidad Frutícola De México: 58 Especies Y 10 Variantes

Las frutas proce- den de distintas regiones: son mesoamericanas (46 %), les siguen las de oriente lejano (30 %), oriente cercano (13 %), las de origen sudamericano (6.0 %), y en menor cantidad (4.5 %) las de África, aunque de aquí también procede nuestra especie, Homo sapiens. Olga Costa y La vendedora de frutas n algún día de 1925, a los 12 años la niña Olga Kostakowsky Fabricant des- cendió del Espagne en el puerto de Veracruz con sus papás y su hermana Emenor, Lya. El casi imperceptible rocío de las flores, la diversidad de colores que contrastaba con el gris-guerra de Europa, los tonos morenos de la gente y los aromas de la brisa marina empezaron a diluir la nacionalidad germana y la ascen- dencia rusa de Olga. A la niña le encantaron las voces de los vendedores callejeros, el novedoso idioma español y el ambiente del hotel donde se hospedaron, pues tuvieron que esperar en vano en el puerto por sus equipajes perdidos. Esas impre- siones y muchísimas más moldearon a aquella niña ruso-germana para convertirla en Olga Costa (1913-1993), pintora mexicana de renombre, Premio Nacional de Bellas Artes en 1990. A contracorriente de los muralistas mexicanos, Olga se alejó de los dogmas estéticos que impusieron, y evitó discriminar tendencias y valores en el arte.

  • A Promenade Trough the Visual Arts in Carlos Monsivais Collection
    A Promenade Trough the Visual Arts in Carlos Monsivais Collection So many books have been written, all over the world and throughout all ages about collecting, and every time one has access to a collection, all the alarms go off and emotions rise up, a new and different emotion this time. And if one is granted access to it, the pleasure has no comparison: with every work one starts to understand the collector’s interests, their train of thought, their affections and their tastes. When that collector is Carlos Monsiváis, who collected a little bit of everything (that is not right, actually it was a lot of everything), and thanks to work done over the years by the Museo del Estanquillo, we are now very aware of what he was interested in terms of visual art in the 20th Century (specially in painting, illustration, engraving, photography). It is only natural that some of the pieces here —not many— have been seen elsewhere, in other exhibitions, when they were part of the main theme; this time, however, it is a different setting: we are just taking a stroll… cruising around to appreciate their artistic qualities, with no specific theme. This days it is unusual, given that we are so used to looking for an overarching “theme” in every exhibition. It is not the case here. Here we are invited to partake, along with Carlos, in the pleasures of color, texture, styles and artistic schools. We’ll find landscapes, portraits, dance scenes, streetscapes, playful scenes. All executed in the most diverse techniques and styles by the foremost mexican artist of the 20th Century, and some of the 21st as well.

Sociedades homologas como Arte Gestión de Ecuador quienes han recurrido al cierre de la misma por situaciones económicas habla de la crisis vivida en nuestros días en Latinoamérica. Casos como Guatemala, Colombia, Honduras en especial Centro América, son a lo referido, donde les son imposibles abrir una representación como Somaap para representar a sus autores plásticos, ante esto damos las gracias a todos quienes han hecho posible la creación y existencia de nuestra Sociedad Autoral y a quienes la han presidido en el pasado enriqueciéndola y dándoles el impulso para que siga existiendo. Es destacable mencionar los logros obtenidos en las diferentes administraciones donde cada una han tenido sus dificultades y sus aciertos, algunas más o menos que otras pero a todas les debemos la razón de que estemos en estos momentos y sobre una estructura solida para afrontar los embates, dando como resultado la seguridad de la permanencia por algunos años más de nuestra querida Somaap. Por ello, es importante seguir trabajando en conjunto para lograr la consolidación de la misma y poder pensar en la Somaap por muchas décadas en nuestro país, como lo ha sido en otras Sociedades de Gestión.
