Miradas: Ancient Roots in Modern Mexican Art: Talk and Tea Lecture Series

Talk and Tea Lecture Series

Event Details:
June 20, 2012 - June 21, 2012
1:30 p.m. - 2:30 p.m.

This unique survey of more than 100 works takes a close look at paintings, prints and photographs created over the past eighty years. The exhibition examines and celebrates work by artists on both sides of the border—American and Mexican-American—to reveal a variety of cultural aspects as they emerged in the years after the Mexican Revolution (1910–1920) to the present day.

Many artists of Mexican descent working in the United States continue to implement social ideas and educational theories first taken up by modern Mexican artists at the end of the Mexican Revolution. They also understand and react to the sociopolitical climate in the United States and the global art and theories of the second half of the twentieth century, incorporating contemporary regional politics along with their broad understanding of their diverse heritages. The Miradas exhibition allows visitors to survey this rich trajectory.

Seated gallery talk at 1:30 p.m. or 2:30 p.m., with afternoon tea and refreshments following. $6 for Members and Non-members, includes lecture, tea and admission to the museum and Gardens. Reservations guarantee your seat. Please call 904.355.0630.

Program sponsored by The Woodcock Foundation for the Appreciation of the Arts, Inc.
