Download or read book Funny Bones written by Duncan Tonatiuh and published by Abrams. This book was released on 2015-08-25 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Funny Bones tells the story of how the amusing calaveras—skeletons performing various everyday or festive activities—came to be. They are the creation of Mexican artist José Guadalupe (Lupe) Posada (1852–1913). In a country that was not known for freedom of speech, he first drew political cartoons, much to the amusement of the local population but not the politicians. He continued to draw cartoons throughout much of his life, but he is best known today for his calavera drawings. They have become synonymous with Mexico’s Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) festival. Juxtaposing his own art with that of Lupe’s, author Duncan Tonatiuh brings to light the remarkable life and work of a man whose art is beloved by many but whose name has remained in obscurity. The book includes an author’s note, bibliography, glossary, and index.
Book Synopsis Mexico Through the Eyes of José Guadalupe Posada by : Alonso Ruiz
Download or read book Mexico Through the Eyes of José Guadalupe Posada written by Alonso Ruiz and published by . This book was released on 2019-11 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is a book about how the artist José Guadalupe Posada saw the Mexican country of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. His conception of Mexico was expressed through drawings of great vivacity, humorous and with doses of sarcasm. In this work there are more than 80 excellent engravings on different topics of national life, and a detailed description of each of them. Posada was a graphic chronicler, first of the Porfiriato and after the Mexican Revolution. With his drawings and skulls "Calaveras", he tells us the customs of the upper and lower classes of that Mexico of the past. The distinctive genre of his artwork is represented by skulls or "Calaveras", that is, those drawings of skulls and skeletons framed with humorous rhymes. Skeleton drawings adopt jocular and sarcastic poses. With those bones, Posada tells us that we are all dead under the living flesh. But the artist was not limited only to the "bony" characters, but also drew cartoons of real people. In his publications appear elegantly dressed men and women, as well as people in humble clothing, and even shows us characters in rags. The engraver also explored the field of journalistic information. His strokes were the illustration of the news: floods, comets in the sky, earthquakes... The crime tabloids exposed the bloody events, such as the murders and robberies that alarmed the country. The drawings of the Mexican Revolution show the former rebels of the regime, mounted on horseback and with their carbines; on the other hand, the dictatorship's soldiers appear fighting and firing against the guerrillas. José Guadalupe Posada was a pioneer of the Mexican nationalist movement; he had the desire to extract the most authentic from the country to show it with roughness and humor to all who wanted to contemplate it.

Book Synopsis Posada's Broadsheets by : Patrick Frank
Download or read book Posada's Broadsheets written by Patrick Frank and published by . This book was released on 1998 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jose Guadalupe Posada is one of the most important graphic artists of modern Mexico. This book offers a close examination of his extensive broadsheet work in its original context: the murders, disasters, revolts, and popular heroes that engaged the attention of the public in Mexico City in the declining years of Porfirio Diaz's dictatorship. Patrick Frank analyzes the sources of Posada's style in Mexican and European prints and cartoons and shows how he altered them to fill his illustrations with vigor and life. Frank shows that Posada's outlook was that of the working class and that he depicted the stories of his day from a vantage point belonging neither to the defenders of the regime nor to its organized opposition. This book brings fresh insights to the work of a major figure in Mexican art history.

Download or read book The First Rule of Punk written by Celia C. Pérez and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2018-07-17 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A 2018 Pura Belpré Author Honor Book The First Rule of Punk is a wry and heartfelt exploration of friendship, finding your place, and learning to rock out like no one’s watching. There are no shortcuts to surviving your first day at a new school—you can’t fix it with duct tape like you would your Chuck Taylors. On Day One, twelve-year-old Malú (María Luisa, if you want to annoy her) inadvertently upsets Posada Middle School’s queen bee, violates the school’s dress code with her punk rock look, and disappoints her college-professor mom in the process. Her dad, who now lives a thousand miles away, says things will get better as long as she remembers the first rule of punk: be yourself. The real Malú loves rock music, skateboarding, zines, and Soyrizo (hold the cilantro, please). And when she assembles a group of like-minded misfits at school and starts a band, Malú finally begins to feel at home. She'll do anything to preserve this, which includes standing up to an anti-punk school administration to fight for her right to express herself! Black and white illustrations and collage art by award-winning author Celia C. Pérez are featured throughout. "Malú rocks!" —Victoria Jamieson, author and illustrator of the New York Times bestselling and Newbery Honor-winning Roller Girl
