The exhibition catalog of portrait paintings by Diego Rivera is an important addition to the understanding of this great 20th century master. The museum holds the world's largest collection of his easel paintings.

Book Description
This volume is the biography and collection of works of Mexican painter and muralist Diego Rivera, for the years 1921 to 1957. This volume -- v. 2 of a two volume set -- covers Rivera's return to Mexico in the wake of that country's tumultuous and transformative revolution. He married fellow Mexican artist Frida Kahlo in 1929, and their tempestuous marriage got to be as famous as their art. In the 1930s and '40s Rivera worked in the United States and Mexico, and many of his paintings drew controversy. His 1933 mural for the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center in Manhattan featured a portrait of Communist Party leader Lenin, the resulting uproar led to his dismissal and to the mural's official destruction in 1934. Similarly, a 1948 mural for the Hotel de Prado in Mexico that included the words "God does not exist" was covered and held from public view for nine years. Rivera's talent for historical murals and his tributes to earthy folk traditions made him one of the most influential artists in the Americas and one of Mexico's most beloved painters. This book is devoted to a visual exploration of Rivera's reflections on art. It presents a selection of texts and quotations by Rivera alongside images created by the painter himself or by artists who in one way or another gained a place in his memory.

Book Description
Diego Rivera is celebrated by Gerry Souter as a virtuoso Mexican muralist, where he could express at once his legend and myths, his technical talent, his intense story-telling focus and self-indulgent ideological convictions. His easel paintings and drawings also constitute a large body of both his early and late work and are represented in the book. Gerry Souter, the author of the remarkable Frida Kahlo, overcomes his huge admiration for Diego Rivera to give the artist a human dimension, found in his political choices, his love affairs and his belief that this truth was Mexico, the language of his thoughts, the blood in his veins, the azure sky above his resting place.
