Join the artists of Writerz Blok and San Diego Museum of Art staff as we officially recognize the installation of a mural celebrating Mexican modernism on December 8, 2011 from 6:30 PM - 9:00 PM with an artist talk at 7:00 PM.

The Andrés Blaisten Collection is one of the premiere collections of 20th-century Mexican art. The San Diego Museum of Art will host a selection of 80 paintings dated between 1907 and 1956 from this renowned collection. This exhibition is a part of a traveling tour of the Blaisten Collection.

The exhibited artists include well-known painters María Izquierdo, Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, Rufino Tamayo, and many others. In addition to these important painters, there are several painters with works in the exhibition that might be new to San Diego audiences such as Alfonso Michel, Federico Cantú, and Angel Zárraga.
