"Published on the occasion of the exhibition of the same name held at Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, 17th February-17th May 2020 ; McNay Art Museum, San Antonio, 25th June-4th October 2020" - Kolofon. - The first half of the 20th century saw prolific cultural exchange between the United States and Mexico, as artists and intellectuals traversed the countries' shared border in both directions. For U.S. artists, Mexico's monumental public murals portraying social and political subject matter offered an alternative aesthetic at a time when artists were seeking to connect with a public deeply affected by the Great Depression. This book celebrates the transformative influence of Mexican artists on their U.S. counterparts during a period of social change
