Starting with the pre-Colombian art of the Aztecs of Mexico and ending with the Chicano art of the Southwest, this course will examine at the historical, political and religious influences in Latin America art. We will look at colonial art and then move on to the work of the Mexican muralists Diego Rivera, David Siqueiros, José Clemente Orozco, the surrealists Frida Kahlo, Leonora Carrington, Remedios Varo and then to the South Americans Fernando Botero, Manuel Blanes, and Torres García. (This course has been greatly revised since it was taught four and a half years ago.)
