you are not a riot (rsvp from david siquieros to andy warhol) by the coup should be mandatory listening for anyone who wants to engage in discourse about art but particularly if you want to discuss apolitical art. Don’t forget: my painting isn’t finished till it kills you

Since frieda kahlo sucks so bad what good mexican artists do you recommend ?

I actually do really like Diego Rivera’s art. Siquieros and Orozco are good too.

1. Writing, Thinking, and Looking Critically

Jackson Pollock was an American painter who ended up being one of the most prominent artists in the Abstract Expressionist movement. He drew inspiration and was influenced by many artists including Thomas Hart Benton, Pablo Picasso, Max Ernst, Joan Miro, and David Alfaro Siquieros to name a few. He was also intrigued by Native American Navajo paintings and Surrealist concepts about allowing the unconscious mind to guide creation. After moving to New York in 1930, Pollock was a student of Benton who was a pioneer in the American Regionalism movement, where artists focused on local and American subject matter to develop a sense of national and personal identity. From here, Pollock learned the basics of composition and eventually spread his wings to create abstract art and later his famous "drip" paintings. I believe Pollock went from studying with Benton to eventually removing all imagery in his work and making drip painting as a means to be innovative and combine what he has learned from various creators in different movements. In the video, Pollock states "I want to express my feelings, rather than illustrate them". Considering that during the time that he was creating drip paintings, he was also struggling with his alcoholism, the "chaotic" drip paintings could have been an avenue for him to express the battles in his head with his addiction, yet find a balance or escape through his creations. His drip paintings also reflected some of the core elements he learned with Benton, and I believe he applied the need to develop a sense of personal identity in his work. As Siquieros, one of Pollock's mentors stated "revolutionary art requires innovative techniques like airbrushing, stenciling, flinging paint, and controlled accidents", which I believe is something Pollock also applied to his creations.

Ekphrasis

Echo of a Scream

As the canvas unfolds there is the visual of a silent cry with deep darkness

There is destruction all around the crying

The mural depicts all the struggles faced by the Echos of a Scream

It mirrors the pain faced with no voice but echos

But with sorrows, it shows the pain, losses, and rain

Screams but with silence and agony and no shows of anything sunny

Tragedy with echos and storm of emotions with silence in the eyes

In plain sight, there is still strength within that survives

For my ekphrasis, I picked the painting, “Echos of a Scream” by David Alfaro Siquieros. I picked this work because it spoke to me the most. One of the essential details I saw looking at the picture is that it depicts a human crying in sorrow with darkness all around. The only visual of color is what he is wearing. It looks like there had been a war but it also shows the war that is going on in the individual's head and mind. The picture does not transmit peace, it instead communicates pain. Another piece of detail is that the head of the human is illustrated twice, one in a bigger way and takes a lot of the center of the picture while the other is small. This attempts to make an emphasis on the pain of his cry. I replicated the original visual and style through my wording because I used a darker style with deeper and emotional wording that transmits the suffering that the individual is enduring.
