MEXICAN MODERN ART ACCORDING TO NELKEN AND THE BLAISTEN COLLECTION
Fundación Casa de Mexico in Spain hosts the exhibition Modern Art of Mexico, with funds from the Blaisten Collection and curated by Daniel Garza Usabiaga, which takes an interesting look at the country's 20th century production through the eyes of Margarita Nelken (Madrid, Spain, 1894-Mexico City, Mexico, 1968).
The Spanish intellectual exiled in Mexico, who serves as a cicerone almost as a curatorial or thesis thread, was one of the agents that most enriched criticism and artistic debate in the Mexican panorama. The relationship between the Spanish author and the collector arises from the study of the artistic practices of the first half of the 20th century that took place on the margins of muralism in Mexico. Her critical texts and commissioned works raised the discipline of historiography and the way of valuing new criteria of a local, almost anthropological nature.
In Arte Moderno de México, 64 paintings and sculptures from the collection can be seen, emphasizing the patrimonial importance of the most relevant names in the history of art, from Diego Rivera, Saturnino Herrán, Dr. Atl, Alfaro Siqueiros and Rufino Tamayo to José Clemente Orozco, María Izquierdo or José Guadalupe Posada, among others.
Her criticism of the institutionalization of certain styles, her perception of aesthetic progression and her support for the visibility of women artists are the fundamental lines that Nelken gave Garza Usabiaga for the creation of an exhibition that brings together disparate styles, local links and references, and historical themes for a show that also covers the chronology of that relationship and the development of modern art in Mexico from the 1940s until Nelken's death in 1968.
Modern Art from Mexico. Blaisten Collection can be seen until February 16, 2025 at Fundación Casa de México en España, Alberto Aguilera, 20, Madrid (Spain).
