Rivera in New York, 1932

Thomas Hart Benson “I saw in the Mexican effort a profound and much-needed redirection of art towards its ancient humanistic foundations. The Mexican concern with publicly significant meanings and with the pageant of Mexican national life corresponded perfectly with what I had in mind for art in the United States. I also looked with envy on the opportunities given Mexican painters for public mural work.” “I saw in the Mexican effort a profound and much-needed redirection of art towards its ancient humanistic foundations.
