Vida Americana Catalogue

This in-depth catalogue offers an important fresh look at the transformative influence of Mexican artists on their U.S. counterparts during a period of social change.

Including over 130 color and 57 b&w illustrations, this catalogue features the work of José Clemente Orozco, Diego Rivera, and David Alfaro Siqueiros and the impact of their work on more than 70 artists, including Marion Greenwood, Philip Guston, Isamu Noguchi, Jackson Pollock, and Charles White. Insightful scholarship provides a new understanding of art history, one that acknowledges the wide-ranging and profound influence the Mexican muralists had on the style, subject matter, and ideology of art in the United States between 1925 and 1945.
