The Dawn of Modernism: Early Twentieth-Century Mexican Photography

The Dawn of Modernism: Early Twentieth-Century Mexican Photography at Throckmorton Fine Art in New York. "...Post-revolutionary Mexico was a beacon for foreign photographers, and an intoxicating setting for their work, as well as for the work of Mexican photographers. This exhibit presents images by the most talented and accomplished artists from this fertile era: Lola Álvarez Bravo, Manuel Álvarez Bravo, Anton Bruehl, Tina Modotti, Paul Strand, and Edward Weston. Many of the works shown defy stylistic classification—they are from a murky, but exciting, period of transition in photography, with all of the work taken in one of the most vibrant artistic settings of the twentieth century."
