Desafio a la Estabilidad/Defying Stability

Proposing new perspectives on artistic production in Mexico between 1952 and 1967, Defying Stability looks at the diversity of the country's postwar visual arts against the backdrop of its broader social and economic shifts. This period saw the formation of new educational institutions, the emergence of alternative cultural spaces and a cross-pollination with European, North American and Latin American avant-gardes. Among the artists represented here are Feliciano B jar, Ursula Bernath, Luis Bu uel, Lilia Carrillo, Jos Luis Cuevas, Felipe Ehrenberg, Manuel Felgu rez, Rub n G mez, Gunther Gerzso, Alberto Gironella, Mathias Goeritz, Juan Jos Gurrola, Juan Guzm n, Kati Horna, Alexandro Jodorowsky, Fernando Luna, Bordes Mangel, Diego Matthai, Rodrigo Moya, Juan O'Gorman, Wolfgang Paalen, Lorraine Pinto, Fernando Garc a Ponce, Armando Salas Portugal, Vicente Rojo and Eduardo Terrazas.
