Vida Americana: Mexican Muralists Remake American Art, 1925–1945 foregrounds the rich cultural exchange between Mexican artists and their counterparts in the United States. Featuring works by José Clemente Orozco, Diego Rivera, Marion Greenwood, Jacob Lawrence, Isamu Noguchi, Jackson Pollock, and Charles White, among others, the exhibition puts forward a more comprehensive and inclusive understanding of this period in American art.
Each tour, lasting approximately fifty minutes, will be led by one of the Museum’s Joan Tisch Teaching Fellows. A wine reception will be available throughout the event.
