He studied painting and sculpture in La Esmeralda National School of Painting and Sculpture from 1940 to 1945 under Juan Cruz, Francisco Zuniga and Santos Balmori, and was later a teacher there himself. In 1946, Coronel went to Paris, where he attended workshops directed by the painter Victor Brauner and the sculptor Constantin Brancusi. From then on he lived alternately in Mexico and Paris. His first individual exhibition was at the Galeria Proteo in 1954. Later he exhibited in France, Italy, Japan, the United States and Brazil. Dramatization of the colors of the ancient cultures and the recovery of their shapes and motifs are basic features of Coronel’s work. Image size: 30 1/16 x 22 9/16 in. (764 x 573 mm).

  • Mario García Torres
    ARCHIVO – DISEÑO Y ARQUITECTURA A PROPOSAL BY Mario García Torres – 9.FEB.17 - 6.MAY.17 THE DYNaMIC MUSEUM – The party was yesterday (and no one remembers anything) – A PROPOSAL BY MARIO GARCÍA TORRES – BASED ON THE PROJECT BY MANUEL LARROSA & MIGUEL SALAS ANZURES During the 1960s, the Dynamic Museum – transformed a series of nonconformist 9.FEB.17 - 6.MAY.17 houses designed by Manuel Larrosa into ephemeral exhibition spaces to accommodate the heterogeneous artistic interventions produced by some of the most prominent members of the Breakaway Generation. Through a selection of original artworks and documents, Mario García Torres recovers the memory of these events, while recapturing their fleeting and festive nature in a series of contemporary gestures. Between 1962 and 1967, the Dynamic Museum emerged as an initiative conceived by the cultural promoter and former director at the National Institute of Fine Arts and the avant-garde architect Manuel Larrosa. Both created the Dynamic Museum to house the artists that were ostracized from the museums and cultural institutions of the time and would later be a part of a group known as ‘Generación de la Ruptura’, or the “Breakaway Generation”.. Paintings by Manuel Felguérez, Lilia Carrillo, Alberto Gironella, Vicente Rojo, Fernando García Ponce, Angélica Gurría, Luis Nishizawa, Enric Climent, Enrique Echeverría y Waldemar Sjölander, among others were featured along with photographs from Nacho López and works from other icons like Alejandro Jodorowsky and Juan José Gurrola, whose unconventional practices had ties with theater, performance art, and conceptual art. The three editions of the Dynamic Museum were hosted in houses designed by Larrosa.

  • This Book Is a Compendium of New Wave Posters. It Is Organized Around the Designers (At Last!)
    “This book is a compendium of new wave posters. It is organized around the designers (at last!). It emphasizes the key contribution of Eastern Europe as well as Western Europe, and beyond. And it is a very timely volume, assembled with R|A|P’s usual flair, style and understanding.” –CHRISTOPHER FRAYLING, FROM THE INTRODUCTION 2 artbook.com French New Wave A Revolution in Design Edited by Tony Nourmand. Introduction by Christopher Frayling. The French New Wave of the 1950s and 1960s is one of the most important movements in the history of film. Its fresh energy and vision changed the cinematic landscape, and its style has had a seminal impact on pop culture. The poster artists tasked with selling these Nouvelle Vague films to the masses—in France and internationally—helped to create this style, and in so doing found themselves at the forefront of a revolution in art, graphic design and photography. French New Wave: A Revolution in Design celebrates explosive and groundbreaking poster art that accompanied French New Wave films like The 400 Blows (1959), Jules and Jim (1962) and The Umbrellas of Cherbourg (1964). Featuring posters from over 20 countries, the imagery is accompanied by biographies on more than 100 artists, photographers and designers involved—the first time many of those responsible for promoting and portraying this movement have been properly recognized. This publication spotlights the poster designers who worked alongside directors, cinematographers and actors to define the look of the French New Wave. Artists presented in this volume include Jean-Michel Folon, Boris Grinsson, Waldemar Świerzy, Christian Broutin, Tomasz Rumiński, Hans Hillman, Georges Allard, René Ferracci, Bruno Rehak, Zdeněk Ziegler, Miroslav Vystrcil, Peter Strausfeld, Maciej Hibner, Andrzej Krajewski, Maciej Zbikowski, Josef Vylet’al, Sandro Simeoni, Averardo Ciriello, Marcello Colizzi and many more.

  • And No One Remembers Anything
    The party was yesterday (and no one remembers anything) – MARIO GARCÍA TORRES – 9.FEB.17 - 6.MAY.17 – Press preview: Tuesday, February 7, 10:00 - 12:00 HRS Opening Party: Thursday, February 9, 19:00 - 22:00 HRS ‘TRASCENDER’: A live choral intervention by singer songwriter Ruzzi, Thursday, February 9, 20:00 HRS – During the 1960s, the Dynamic Museum transformed a series of nonconformist houses designed by Manuel Larrosa into ephemeral exhibition spaces. Through a selection of original artworks and documents, Mario García Torres recovers the memory of these events, while recapturing their fleeting and festive nature in a series of contemporary gestures. On the evening of September 6, 1962, a group of young, avant-garde, anti-establishment artists who would eventually be recognized as part of the “Breakaway Generation” (or Generación de la Ruptura) occupied the rooms, hallways and gardens of an odd-looking house of unconventional proportions and geometries designed by Manuel Larrosa –an experimental architect in his early thirties–. They hung abstract paintings on the walls, placed sculptures in unexpected nooks and crevices, used staircases and windows as backdrops for stagings and dance performances. That night, the house at Tepexpan 14, in the sleepy, cobblestoned neighborhood of Coyoacán, was transformed into the first Dynamic Museum, a project conceived as part museum, part theater, part happening, part get-together, by Larrosa himself along with former director at the National Institute of Fine Arts, Miguel Salas Portugal.

    INFORME ANUAL CORRESPONDIENTE AL ÚLTIMO SEMESTRE DEL 2013 y PRIMER SEMESTRE DE 2014. Informe presentado por el Consejo Directivo Nacional de la Sociedad Mexicana de Autores de las Artes Plásticas, Sociedad De Gestión Colectiva De Interés Público, correspondiente al segundo semestre del 2013 y lo correspondiente al año 2014 ante la Asamblea General de Socios. Nuestra Sociedad de Gestión ha tenido varios resultados importantes y destacables con ello hemos demostrado que a pesar de las problemáticas presentadas en nuestro país se puede tener una Sociedad de Gestión como la nuestra. 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.

  • La Tierra Prometida
    PRESENTACION La tierra prometida Cuando las últimas luces de la temporada navideña aún no se apagan, viene a mi mente una reflexión a propósito de una lectura bíblica muy conocida, la salida del pueblo hebreo de Egipto. Imaginando los preparativos del viaje, veo cómo todo se empacó cuidadosamente, con seguridad se habrán puesto ropas abrigadoras y resistentes y un calzado de las mismas características que garantizara cierta comodidad para dar inicio a unas jornadas inciertas, pero el aire también debió de estar lleno de algarabía, alegría y esperanzas. Guardando cierta distancia, y buscando algún paralelismo, es esta misma voz la que los constructores esperan nerviosamente para tomar sus bártulos y “ceñirse los lomos” – esta es un expresión muy utilizada en la cultura hebrea que significa estar prestos para iniciar el trabajo–. La maquinaria, los presupuestos y la necesidad de construcción de obra pesada están ahí, pero la anhelada señal de arranque no llega. Esperemos que en estas primeras semanas se dé la señal de avance y pronto podamos ver cómo las promesas de campaña se hacen realidad. Hacemos votos para que la construcción no tenga que vagar por el desierto cuarenta años antes de llegar a la tierra prometida de la actividad. Luis Martínez Argüello Presidente del IMCYC La escultura y la dimensión del concreto Por Enrique Chao EL concreto se integró a las nuevas formas que exigían los artistas, los constructores y los decoradores hace apenas unas cuantas décadas, aunque las obras de concreto realizadas por el escultor inglés Henry Moore, de las primeras en su género, datan de mediados de los años 20 del siglo pasado.
