Jose Clemente Orozco
Looks at the life and career of the Mexican mural painter.
José Clemente Orozco
This fully illustrated volume documents Jose Clemente Orozco's finest work as a printmaker in lithography and intaglio.
Jose Clemente Orozco In The United States
The complete North American work of one of Mexico's greatest muralists. Among the Mexican muralists working in this country during the 1920s and 1930s, including the giants Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros, the paintings of José Clemente Orozco are arguably the strongest and most politically charged. This important and profusely illustrated volume is proof. From his first commission, Prometheus, at Pamona College and his highly political work at the New School for Social Research in New York to what some feel is his masterpiece, The Epic of American Civilization, at Dartmouth College, Orozco's stinging characterizations of hypocrisy, greed, and oppression challenged conventional conservative views, to such an extent that in certain instances demands were made for the destruction of his works. All of Orozco's North American work is presented here, with discussions on his life and influences as well as his place among the other Mexican artists and his impact on the exuberant art of the 1960s and 1970s.
José Clemente Orozco
This biography recounts the life and career of one of the world's greatest artists. Orozco's work has been compared to that of the great painter Michelangelo. Famous for their stark depictions of the human condition, Orozco's controversial murals still convey a powerful message today.
José Clemente Orozco
The fresco that Jose Clemente Orozco painted in 1930 at Pomona College in Claremont, California, was both the artist's first work in the United States and the first Mexican mural in this country. As such, the Prometheus is a landmark in the history of the Mexican mural movement and of the art of the 20th century. The four essays in this volume, written over a period of 43 years, bear testimony to the undimmed power of the Prometheus to intrigue, provoke, and inspire. Celebrating the college's acquisition of 17 preparatory drawings for the mural from the artist's family, the book is illustrated with Orozco's work and that of his contemporaries.
