Description
by George Porcari (Author)
On the Road in Post-Revolutionary Mexico with Edward Weston and Tina Modotti is both a dual biogrpahy and a critical study of their photography.
While the book concentrates on their time period in mexico during the 1920's it also covers their time in San Francisco and Los Angeles before they set off to join the Mexican Renaissance. The book also traces their time after when Weston returned to California and Modotti moved on to Europe in an anti-fascist crusade, before and during WWII, that would consume the rest of her short life.
The book puts their work into the context of the 1920's with chapters on the Mexican Revolution, the Mexican Renaissance and the photographic world in Europe in the pre-war era. The book is illustrated with with some of their work before 1929 but is primarily text that fully describes their lives and their work as they intersected in one of the most intereseting times and places in the 20th century, with a cast of characters that rance from Diego Rivera to Frida Kahlo and Anita Brenner to Sergei Eisenstein. Nevertheless the main focus is on on "Edward and Tina" as they were known to their Mexico City friends - a kind of American version of "Diego and Frida." This book is the story of their lives and their photography.
