Diego Rivera his art and his passions

"Diego Rivera is celebrated by Gerry Souter as a virtuoso Mexican muralist, where he could express at once his legend and myths, his technical talent, his intense story-telling focus and self-indulgent ideological convictions. His easel paintings and drawings also constitute a large body of both his early and late work and are represented in the book. Gerry Souter, the author of Frida Kahlo, overcomes his huge admiration for Diego Rivera to give the artist a human dimension, found in his political choices, his love affairs and his belief that this truth was Mexico, the language of his thoughts, the blood in his veins, the azure sky above his resting place."--Publisher description.

  • ""Ya conocia a Diego Rivera, el muralista mexicano, mucho antes de encontrarme con los otros "Diego Rivera" que circulaban por el mundo entre principios del siglo XX y finales de la decada de los 50, (...) Mientras que sus pintura de caballete constituyen un amplio corpus dentro de su obra temprana y tardia, sus murales unicos hacen estallar las paredes en una explosion de representaciones de gran virtuosismo cuya organizacion conmociona la mente dell espectador.

(Gerry Souter) Gerry Souter, autor del excelente libro Frida Kahlo, hace a un lado su gran admiracion por Diego Rivera para darle al artista una dimension humana, basada en sus opinioes politicas, sus amorios y su conviccion de que "en lo profundo de sus ser (...) estaba Mexico, el lenguaje de sus pensamientos, la sangre en sus venas, el cielo azul por encima de su lugar de reposo" --Amazon.com"
  • "Je connaissais Diego Rivera, le muraliste mexicain, bien avant de découvrir les nombreux autres Diego Rivera qui hantèrent le monde du début du XXe siècle à la fin des années 1950. ... Si ses peintures de chevalet et ses dessins forment une grande part de ses œuvres de jeunesse comme de la maturité, ses peintures murales uniques font exploser les murs par la virtuosité de leur composition époustouflante. Sur ces murs s'exposent tout à la fois l'homme, sa légende et ses mythes, son talent technique, son intensité narrative et les convictions idéologiques qu'il aimait afficher. (Gerry So."

  • ""Als Freskenmaler war mir der Mexikaner Diego Rivera schon ein Begriff, lange bevor ich die vielen anderen "Riveras" zu Gesicht bekam, die vom Beginn des 20. Jahrhunderts bis in die späten Fünfzigerjahre hinein weltweit in Umlauf waren. ... Während seine Staffeleibilder und Zeichnungen sowohl einen Großteil seines Früh- als auch seines Spätwerks bilden, explodieren seine Wandgemälde in virtuoser Darbietung eines atemberaubenden Bildaufbaus förmlich von den Wänden. An diesen Wänden stauen sich Rivera als Mann, Legende und Mythos, sein technisches Können, sein stark narrativer Fokus sowie seine."
