Diego Rivera & Frida Kahlo and Ordinary People by Extraordinary Artists
|
Diego Rivera & Frida Kahlo and Ordinary People by Extraordinary Artists. Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo will explore the tumultuous and highly productive year that the Mexican artists spent in Detroit, a pivotal turning point in each artist's career. Between April 1932 and March 1933, Rivera created one of his most accomplished mural cycles—Detroit Industry—on the four walls of a centrally located courtyard at the DIA. At the same time and largely unnoticed, Kahlo developed her now-celebrated artistic identity. The “extraordinary artists” in this exhibition are a “who’s who” of late 19th-century figures who moved art from its traditional academic moorings into the modern era. Many of the DIA’s strongest holdings in works on paper are highlighted. Edgar Degas’ bathers, dancers, and jockeys; Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s portraits of his family and celebrities; Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec’s stage performers; Paul Cézanne’s bathers. Other artists included are Pierre Bonnard, Edouard Vuillard, Edouard Manet, Paul Gauguin, Georges Seurat, Mary Cassatt, and Camille Pissarro. 8am - Bus departs from Westmount Mall parking lot, behind the Cineplex Theatre Receipt of Payment in full
