David Alfaro Siqueiros (Mexican, 1898-1974)

 

David Alfaro Siqueiros is one of Mexico's most important artists. Born in Chihuahua, Mexico, the artist attended the Open Air Art School in Santa Anita, Mexico. In 1914, he enlisted in the army, fighting in the Mexican Revolution. He painted his first mural in 1923, the beginning of a long career that would make him famous throughout Mexico and the United States. The Santa Barbara Museum of Art recently celebrated the installation of a Siqueiros mural that had been moved from a private home in Pacific Palisades. Another important mural painted in downtown Los Angeles is now being restored by the Getty Museum.

David Alfaro Siqueiros is receiving more recognition now than ever before in his history. Museums in Los Angeles, as well as in other major cities in the United States in recognition of the Centennial of the Mexican Revolution and the Bi-Centennial of Independence are mounting major exhibitions. Museums have chosen to highlight the art of this great Mexican Master artist. He is known as one the three Mexican Master artists, along with Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco. To name a few of the exhibits of Siqueiros' art to be held are the Museum of Latin American Art, the Autry National Center of the American West, along with the recognition of his famous mural America Tropical at the Getty Center and the Los Angeles County Museum. Organized by Mexico's most illustrious museum, Museum of Modern Art in Mexico City, a massive exhibit will be touring the United States.

Canto General by Pablo Neruda Lithograph Series of 10

Each of the 10 black & white lithographs in the Canto General series is signed by artist David Alfaro Siqueiros, and initialed by the printer. The series is a special edition on Arches, and the titles are from the three stanzas: The Heights of Macchu Picchu; Heart Magelllan, Poets Celestial; The Beggars & The Poet, though they are not titled.

It is known that poet Pablo Neruda and Siqueiros had been friends, hence his relationship to the poetry. The illustrations arose after Siqueiros was released from prison and he fled to Chili.
