Diego Riveria The Detroit Industry Murals (Hardcover) by Linda Downs (Author)

Book Description
A beautifully illustrated in-depth study of the most important North American work by the best-known Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera. Early in the Depression, Diego Rivera was commissioned by Edsel Ford to create a series of murals in the gallery of the Detroit Institute of Arts, giant frescos whose theme would be America's industrial might. This volume studies the astonishing results and gives us a remarkably close look at Diego and his wife, Frida Kahlo. Rivera's Detroit Industry murals are one of this country's greatest treasures. In addition to providing full coverage and analysis of the murals, this volume includes chapters on the murals' planning and antecedents, Rivera's working methods (which can be read as a primer on frescos), Diego and Frida's lives for their nine months in Detroit, and the public's dramatic response to the strong socialist/communist themes in the works.


IngramBeautifully illustrated, this in-depth study of the most important North American work by Mexican muralist, Diego Rivera includes reproductions of some of the world's greatest treasures, commissioned by Edsel Ford in the 1930s. 190 illustrations, 40 in color. 2 color triple fold-outs.

Helmut Schmidt turns 90 

The former German chancellor and statesman Helmut Schmidt celebrates his 90th birthday this Tuesday in Hamburg. In 1974 the Social Democrat replaced Willy Brandt and went on to govern the-then West Germany for eight years. Schmidt's tenure included a Cold War missile standoff, economic turbulence, student protests, and his firm stance on murders by German urban militants known as the Baader-Meinhof Gang. In 1977 on Schmidt's orders German commandos freed Lufthansa passengers and crew at Mogadishu after a hijacking by Palestinian extremists. In 1982 Schmidt's coalition was ousted by the Christian Democrat Helmut Kohl. Schmidt quit politics to concentrate on his work as co-publisher of the weekly newspaper Die Zeit. The 90-year-old Schmidt also plays piano and has recorded concertos of both Mozart and Bach. Current Chancellor Angela Merkel has described Schmidt as one of Germany's defining personalities.
