Your art history post for today: by Olga Costa (1913-1993), The Fruit Seller (La vendedora de frutas), 1951, Museo de Arte Moderno, Mexico City. #WomensHistoryMonth #womenartists #womanartist #mexicanartist #mexicanartists
From Inverarte Art Gallery: ‘Born as Olga Kostakowsky in Leipzig, Germany, on August 28, 1913, Olga Costa arrived in Mexico in 1925, when she was just twelve years old. Her family, of Jewish-Russian origin, was seeking a place to rebuild their lives, far from the growing winds of intolerance sweeping across Europe. Mexico, with its light, colors, and traditions, offered young Olga a fertile ground where she could plant her roots and nurture her art.
Her European childhood became a distant memory. It was in Mexico where she truly came of age, not only as a person but also as an artist, eventually changing her name to Olga Costa. The vibrancy of the markets, the popular life, the pre-Hispanic art, and traditional crafts all captured her imagination with a force that never left her…
Costa dedicated herself to building a body of work marked by profound originality. Her paintings are notable for their exaltation of color, formal synthesis, and a loving gaze toward Mexican popular life. Unlike many of her contemporaries, Costa was not drawn to grand political themes or heroic tales of the Revolution. Her universe was different: that of flowers, fruits, anonymous women, and domestic altars. Her first solo exhibition took place at the Galería de Arte Mexicano in 1945. Her most celebrated painting, La vendedora de frutas (1951), considered an icon of modern Mexican art, was commissioned by the National Institute of Fine Arts and Literature (INBAL) for the exhibition “Art mexicain du précolombien à nos jours” at the Musée National d’Art Moderne in Paris, and is now part of the collection of the Museo de Arte Moderno in Mexico City.’

Keep still and don't tap your foot... I double dog dare you.
I can't. Her voice and the guitar - so good. But what type of music would you consider this? I honestly don't know.

By Frida Kahlo (1907-1954), Self Portrait on the Border between Mexico and the United States of America, 1932, oil on metal, 11 3/4" X 13 1/2" (31 × 35 cm), private collection. #arthistory #cincodemayo #womanartist #womenartists #mexicanartists
From PBS, discussing the film The Life and Times of Frida Kahlo, written directed by Amy Stechler: ‘In 1930, when Diego [Rivera, her husband] received several commissions to paint murals in the United States, the couple packed their bags and headed north. At the end of four years, Diego remained content in his American surroundings, but Frida was homesick and miserable. Her experience living in "Gringolandia" inspired the painting, Self-portrait on the Borderline Between Mexico and the United States.”
