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.

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.
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.
Download or read book Posada written by José Guadalupe Posada and published by Editorial Rm. This book was released on 2008 with total page 148 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now available for the first time in English, this volume brings the distinctly Mexican flavor of José Guadalupe Posada's work home to the reader with the striking design of its uncoated pages in the three different colors of the Mexican flag: green, white and red. Interspersed with a varied selection of the artist's engravings--broadsheets, corridos, chapbooks, vignettes, calaveras, games and a long etcetera of miscellaneous material featuring subjects like bullfights, Day of the Dead and crimes of passion--are two long texts by recognized authorities on the work of Posada. One essay deals with Posada's place in the wider tradition of graphic art and engraving, even as it follows his remarkable career from lithographer in the Mexican provinces to "popular" artist representing the quintessential expression of the Mexican Revolution at the beginning of the twentieth century. The other looks at Posada's role as a "professional of the image" in the changing world of publishing for a nascent but fast-growing reading public in late-nineteenth-century Mexico. Finally, the volume contains a biographical chronology of Posada's life and work, a bibliography and more than 600 fascinating reproductions.

Book excerpt: Because of the high quality and the quantity of his art, Jose Guadalupe Posada is the one Mexican printmaker who has acquired posthumous and international fame.

But a man and a woman no one knows arrive in time to take their place in the procession and then mysteriously disappear at the end before they can be thanked.That night we witness a Christian miracle, for when Sister Angie goes to the cathedral and kneels before the statue of Mary and Jospeh, wet footprints from the snow lead up to the statue.
