Diego Rivera fue un muralista genial, pero también un hombre atravesado por contradicciones, pasiones y excesos. En este episodio no lo endiosamos: lo miramos de cerca, con sus luces, sus sombras y su amor por narrar a México desde las paredes. ¿Qué nos deja realmente su obra? ¿Cómo reconciliamos su genialidad artística con su vida personal compleja? ¿Podemos separar su legado de su relación tormentsoa con Frida Kahlo o sus visiones políticas? Te invito a reflexionar sobre el legado de los grandes creadores y sobre cómo podemos honrar su arte sin idealizar completamente a la persona. Este episodio llega a ti gracias a Actinver, que te acompaña a construir las grandes historias de tu vida. ¡Hola, soy Elisa Queijeiro!Nací para contar historias.

Ein Gespräch über Kunst & Popkultur mit Olga Batt, freischaffende Künstlerin.
Artists spend so much time worrying about being consistent. But what if that's not the point? What if your inconsistency is proof that you're alive in your practice? I know you look at other artists — the ones who seem to stay in one lane — and you think, maybe I'm doing it wrong. Maybe people won't get it. Maybe the market only rewards repetition. And yet, deep down, you know that sameness suffocates you. You didn't become an artist to repeat yourself. You became an artist to explore. To experiment. To see what else is possible. We humans like certainty — patterns, predictability, knowing what's what. But artists are wired for curiosity. You thrive on the unknown, the risk, the mess of it all. You love the feeling of falling forward. So when you see others who appear to be consistent, remember you might just be comparing your evolution to their edit. It´s time to make peace with being consistently inconsistent – listen in and let Ceri show you how. KEY TAKEAWAYS Consistency isn't sameness. Consistency is commitment. It's showing up for the work, again and again, in whatever form it needs. Most successful artists Ceri has met aren't driven by style — they're driven by a question. One that won't leave them alone. Louise Bourgeois had it, Tracey Emin, Frida Kahlo - their forms changed, but the question stayed. They kept circling the same core. Stop trying to make your work look the same. Start making it feel true to the same enquiry. Ask yourself: what do I keep coming back to? What keeps tugging at my sleeve? What am I still trying to understand? That´s your North Star, follow it. BEST MOMENTS “The market might appear to love sameness, but the artists who last are those who stay faithful to their inquiry. They don't bend to the zeitgeist, they don't make to order, they don't chase trends.” “ Some people won't get it, some people won't like it, but you can't be a brilliant artist and a people pleaser.” “Authenticity is showing up for what matters, even when it's unfashionable.” “Avoiding your true voice by copying others or chasing what sells keeps you stuck.” PODCAST HOST BIO With over 35 years in the art world, Ceri has worked closely with leading artists and arts professionals, managed public and private galleries and charities, and curated more than 250 exhibitions and events. She sold artworks to major museums and private collectors and commissioned thousands of works across diverse media, from renowned artists such as John Akomfrah, Pipilotti Rist, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer and Vito Acconci. Now, she wants to share her extensive knowledge with you, so you can excel and achieve your goals. **** Ceri Hand Coaching Membership: Group coaching, live art surgeries, exclusive masterclasses, portfolio reviews, weekly challenges.

From hair-dos to hair-don'ts — this killer curls into chaos. During this episode of On the Air with Florenza, I'm joined by the phenomenally talented author St. Sukie De la Croix to discuss his newest book, The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer. Enter the wild, high-camp world of Palm Springs, where curly-top conspiracies meet slapstick sleuthing in Twilight Manors in Palm Springs: The Hunt for the Hairdo Killer. When retired-detective duo Brian & Stéphane stumble upon a madman wiring women's curlers with lethal surprises, the stakes go higher than a bouffant. Mobsters, poodles, a grieving cat named Fish Paste, trigger-happy gardeners filming Godzilla vs. Frida Kahlo, giraffes, and even a wardrobe-malfunctioning waitress licked by the “Forever Marilyn” statue—everything's off the hook and off the rails. If you thought tradition was tame, this book proves you've never witnessed a bad perm gone full thriller. Written by archival legend St. Sukie De la Croix—historian, raconteur, and the gay Studs Terkel of the Midwest—this is satire, absurdity, and mystery dressed in drag and ready to party. #OntheAirwithFlorenza #FlorenzaDeniseLee #FlorenzaLee #AuthorsOnTheAir #HairdoKiller #StSukieDeLaCroix #TwilightManors #CampyMystery #LGBTQReads #PalmSpringsMayhem

In SuperAdaptability: How to Transcend in an Age of Overwhelm, Max McKeown argues that the key to thriving under uncertainty is adaptability—being able to change with your environment, again and again, getting better each time.McKeown is a leading strategy thinker, coach to Fortune 100 companies, and an award-winning author. In his new book, he reveals how figures as different as Frida Kahlo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Simone Biles all relied on the same pattern of thinking to adapt to radically changing circumstances.In his conversation with Adam Job, senior director at the BCG Henderson Institute, he discusses the difference between adaptability and resilience, and how to scale adaptability from one person to a team to an entire organization.Key topics discussed: 01:14 | The power of adaptive intelligence03:03 | Adaptability vs. resilience05:15 | The RUN loop: Recognize, understand, necessary action09:08 | How to help others become more adaptable11:57 | How to make your company more adaptable16:19 | Applying the loop logic to innovation23:56 | Real life stories of adaptability29:23 | Bringing adaptability to life with illustrationsAdditional inspirations from Max McKeown:The Strategy Book: How to Think and Act Strategically to Deliver Outstanding Results (FT Publishing International, 2024)
Frida Kahlo: The Art of Keeping Pain Creative Vision and Mindful Craft: Frida Kahlo didn't minimize or mask her pain. She turned it into art—and by doing so, left a legacy of radical honesty and emotional survival. In this episode, we reflect on the unflinching beauty of her life and work, and what it means to keep our hardest stories with care.

The Iranian capital Tehran is suffering from a severe water crisis as the country faces a historic drought. The government has openly discussed an evacuation of the city as its nearly 10 million residents deal with water rationing. Also, at least eight people were killed in a car explosion in a densely populated area of India's capital. And, Iraq heads to the polls for parliamentary elections, with a record number of candidates, but high voter apathy. Plus, a painting by Frida Kahlo that's being auctioned later this month could become the most expensive work by any female or Latin American artist.Listen to today's Music Heard on Air.

Rosalía, Taylor Swift o Bad Bunny son mucho más que artistas musicales, son también símbolos de una época en la que todo, incluida la cultura, puede ser también una forma de hacer política. Cada disco, videoclip o aparición pública desencadena debates sobre feminismo, identidad o clase. De la espiritualidad de Lux a la reivindicación de lo latino y la cultura puertorriqueña de Debí tirar más fotos, de Frida Kahlo a Dante Alighieri, de los discursos anti-trans de J.K. Rowling al impacto político de artistas del pop, cada obra se reinterpreta hoy desde nuevas trincheras ideológicas. En un contexto marcado por la polarización y la mercantilización de las luchas sociales, la cultura popular actúa como espejo de las tensiones contemporáneas. Cualquier gesto creativo se analiza y se discute pero: ¿podemos disfrutar del arte sin pensar en lo que representa? Algunas de las recomendaciones que encontrarás en el podcast: Lux, de Rosalía Debí tirar más fotos, de Bad Bunny FatherMotherSisterBrother, de Jim Jarmusch Divina Comedia, de Danti Alighieri CRÉDITOS: Realizan: Tommaso Koch, Ana Marcos y Jimena Marcos Con información de: María Porcel, Paola Nagovitch, Sergio C.

Indiana-rooted funk band The Main Squeeze never imagined they'd end up in a ballet. Joffrey Ballet choreographer Chanel DaSilva had other plans. Her new work “Wabash & You” — opening Nov. 6 at Harris Theater — is a love story set in downtown Chicago, based on her own experiences. The production invites The Main Squeeze onstage to perform live alongside Joffrey Ballet dancers in this love letter to Chicago (and to hopeless romantics). After touring the US and Europe in support of their sixth studio album, lead singer of The Main Squeeze Corey Frye called in to Vocalo to break down how the band got involved with DaSilva and the Joffrey. "Wabash & You" is part of "Matters of the Heart," the Joffrey Ballet's five-show residency at Harris Theater in Millennium Park. The two-act program also features Annabelle Lopez Ochoa's Frida Kahlo-inspired work “Broken Wings.” It runs through Sunday, Nov. 9. This interview originally aired on Vocalo Radio 91.1 FM during Nudia in the Afternoons on Tuesday, Nov. 4. It was hosted and produced by Nudia Hernandez. It was edited and mixed by Morgan Ciocca, with production support from Talia Lopresti. Keep up with us @vocalo on Instagram and @vocalo.radio on TikTok.

On this episode of #LatinosOutLoud #RachelLaLoca interviews award-winning Author and Illustrator, John Parra. The two chat it up about John's newest picture book about mindfulness and the Day of the Dead. THIS MOMENT IS SPECIAL follows a boy through all the moments of the day, both large and small, as he prepares for Día de Muertos . Told in both Spanish and English, this story is filled with family, love, and inspiration as we learn to slow down and live in the moments of life that make special memories. The belief of Dia de Muertos is that there is a moment when the world of the living and those that have passed on are in connection and celebrate these memories as one. ABOUT THE AUTHOR/ILLUSTRATOR John Parra's illustrations for Frida Kahlo and Her Animalitos, written by Monica Brown, earned the book a New York Times Best Illustrated Book designation. He also illustrated Green Is a Chile Pepper: A Book of Colors by Roseanne Thong, which received a Pura Belpré Honor and the Américas Book Award: Commended; Marvelous Cornelius: Hurricane Katrina and the Spirit of New Orleans by Phil Bildner, which won the Golden Kite Award for Picture Book Illustration and was a Bank Street Best Book of the year; and Hey, Wall, by Susan Verde, which School Library Journal called “a must-purchase” in a starred review.

A new play by acclaimed theatre artist and author Carmen Aguirre opened Oct 16 at The Cultch. Fire Never Dies was inspired by the life of Italian photographer Tina Modotti. Modotti was brought up in poverty in Italy, crossed the Atlantic to the U.S. in 1913 when she was in her teens, and then moved to Mexico City where she became part of the thriving art scene that included Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. Along the way, Modotti made a name for herself with her arresting photographs of the working class and Mexican Indigenous culture. Carmen Aguirre joins me today to talk about the play.

L'émission 28 minutes du 14/10/2025 Scarabée titan, libellule criquet, mouche cerf : à quoi pourraient ressembler les insectes du futur ? Nous sommes en 2499, la Troisième Guerre mondiale et le dérèglement climatique ont tout dévasté ou presque : plus un reptile, un mammifère, mais des insectes géants mêlés à quelques survivalistes. Jean-Sébastien Steyer, paléontologue, imagine cette dystopie dans son roman “Les insectes du futur” (éditions Belin) accompagné des dessins d'Étienne Lucas. Une professeure d'entomologie et son étudiant thésard partent en road trip en voiture électrique de Paris à Monaco à la rencontre de ces insectes étonnants : fourmis aquatiques, criquets migrateurs de 60 centimètres avec des ailes durcies ou encore des scarabées géants de 10 mètres. Pour imaginer ces grosses “bébêtes”, Jean-Sébastien Steyer s'est inspiré de ses connaissances de paléontologue, d'insectes passés et actuels, mais aussi de sa culture geek comme le jeu de rôle Donjons et Dragons, ou encore l'univers de Tolkien. Crise chez Les Républicains : vers la fin du tabou de “l'union des droites” ?En quelques jours, la guerre des droites s'est rallumée. En acceptant de rejoindre le gouvernement “Lecornu II”, alors que Bruno Retailleau, le président des Républicains, avait acté leur non-participation, six ministres Les Républicains frondeurs vont être exclus du parti. Parmi eux, Rachida Dati, ministre de la Culture et candidate LR pour les prochaines municipales à Paris ou encore Annie Genevard, ministre de l'Agriculture et présidente de la commission d'investiture du parti. Ses membres sont plus que jamais divisés : doivent-ils continuer à travailler avec l'ancien “socle commun” ou, au contraire, se rapprocher du Rassemblement national ? Aujourd'hui, 52 % des Français se disent favorables à une coalition entre LR, RN et Reconquête. La semaine dernière, Bruno Retailleau a exhorté ses électeurs à n'apporter aucune voix pour la gauche dans un duel entre le PS et l'UDR, soutenue par le RN, lors d'une élection législative partielle dans le Tarn-et-Garonne. Jordan Bardella, président du RN, s'est dit récemment prêt à tendre la main aux LR avec un “accord de gouvernement” en cas de dissolution. Bruno Retailleau a refusé, mais pour combien de temps ? Enfin, Xavier Mauduit s'intéresse à l'ouverture d'un nouveau musée consacré à Frida Kahlo, au Mexique, dans l'ancienne demeure familiale de l'artiste iconique du 20e siècle dont il nous conte l'histoire. Marie Bonnisseau nous partage la nouvelle potion magique des sportifs de haut niveau : le jus de cornichon, apprécié pour soulager les crampes. 28 minutes est le magazine d'actualité d'ARTE, présenté par Élisabeth Quin du lundi au jeudi à 20h05. Renaud Dély est aux commandes de l'émission le vendredi et le samedi. Ce podcast est coproduit par KM et ARTE Radio.

Celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with Ericka Sanchez In this episode of the Helping Families Be Happy podcast, host Christopher Robbins interviews Ericka Sanchez, a Mexican-born recipe developer, food stylist, and creator of the award-winning blog Nibbles and Feasts. Ericka shares her journey from documenting family recipes to becoming a successful cookbook author with four published books.

Key Takeaways Food serves as a powerful connection to cultural heritage and family traditions, preserving memories across generations. Starting with familiar ingredients and asking questions is the best approach when exploring a new cuisine like Mexican cooking. Breakfast holds special significance in Hispanic culture as a time for family connection and conversation, not just sustenance. Essential Mexican pantry staples like dried chilies and cilantro can transform everyday cooking with authentic flavors. Cultural traditions like Día de los Muertos help families maintain connections to their roots and honor those who came before. Passion projects that start as personal endeavors can evolve into meaningful careers when they authentically reflect one's heritage. Comparing unfamiliar ingredients to similar familiar ones (like cotija cheese to feta) helps overcome intimidation in trying new cuisines.

"You have to experiment and find out how it's used" - Ericka's advice for exploring Mexican ingredients.
In the creative economy, it is more profitable to be a dead creator than a living working writer. Or that is the lesson learned from the lawsuit the Michael Crichton estate filed against The Pitt. Crichton, who earned a quarter of a billion dollars for his contribution to the NBC show ER -- his contribution being a film script that was later adapted by someone else into a network pilot -- while the actual writers, actors, and crew made considerably less. Jessa and Nico talk about the writers who filed suit against AI, why Basquiat is in his most prolific era yet (37 years after his death), and the curse of the Frida Kahlo Barbie doll.

In this exclusive holiday-season episode of the Ash Said It Show, we sit down with Tricia Ekholm from Atlanta Ballet to explore their upcoming season — including the return of their iconic production of The Nutcracker at Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre. Whether you're a seasoned ballet lover or a first-time attendee, this episode offers a behind-the-scenes look at:
Nestled in the heart of Winchester, Virginia, the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley (MSV) is more than just a repository of art and history—it's a vibrant, ever-evolving community hub. In this episode of “The Valley Today,” host Janet Michael sat down with Julie Armel, the museum's Deputy Director of Marketing and Communications, to uncover the stories, exhibits, and people that make the MSV a regional treasure. The conversation opens with a sense of homecoming, as Janet recalls her long-standing relationship with the museum and marvels at its transformation over the past two decades. Julie offers listeners a sweeping overview: the MSV spans nearly 200 acres, featuring the largest green space and only working farm within Winchester's city limits. Visitors can explore formal gardens, the historic Glen Burnie House, and a dynamic galleries building that tells the story of the Shenandoah Valley through permanent and rotating exhibitions. One of the museum's standout features is its commitment to change and innovation. Julie describes the ever-shifting landscape of outdoor exhibits, from the whimsical “Gardens of Glass” to the current showstopper: “Scraposaurs,” a collection of giant prehistoric creatures crafted from scrap metal. These imaginative sculptures, including a T-Rex with John Deere rotary hoe teeth and a triceratops built on a Chevy truck frame, delight families and art lovers alike. The MSV's trails double as an art park, dotted with sculptures from local and internationally renowned artists, ensuring that every visit offers something new. Accessibility and community engagement are at the core of the MSV's mission. Julie highlights programs like “Museums for All,” which provides free admission to families on food assistance, and special events such as Dino Con, where dinosaur-themed attire earns free entry. The museum also offers free gallery admission on Wednesdays and always welcomes children under 12 at no charge. Volunteers play a vital role, contributing thousands of hours to events like Garden Lights, a spectacular annual display of LED flowers and immersive art that draws crowds from across the region. Inside, the museum's galleries are equally dynamic. Janet and Julie discuss recent and upcoming exhibitions, including a Frida Kahlo photography show and “Curated Chaos,” which offers a rare glimpse into the museum's collection storage. The MSV's educational programming is robust, with teen art clubs, workshops, and interactive activities designed to engage visitors of all ages and backgrounds. The museum's makerspace invites creativity, while membership programs and volunteer opportunities foster a sense of belonging and shared purpose. Throughout the conversation, a recurring theme emerges: the MSV is a place where history, art, and community intersect. Whether you're a first-time visitor or a longtime supporter, the museum offers a welcoming space to learn, create, and connect. As Julie notes, “There's something for everyone here.” With its blend of tradition and innovation, the Museum of the Shenandoah Valley stands as a testament to the power of cultural institutions to enrich and inspire their communities.

Ellen E Jones and Mark Kermode look at the long relationship between cinema and painting.Mark speaks to cultural historian Professor Sir Christopher Frayling on Hollywood's approach to the history of art, from Kirk Douglas as Van Gogh to Salma Hayek as Frida Kahlo. He then talks to actor Timothy Spall on how playing JMW Turner led to a parallel career as a painter.Ellen explores the relationship between painting and cinematography with cinematographer Sir Roger Deakins. She also speaks to artist Cathy Lomax on the painterly in cinema - and the cinematic in painting.Producer: Jane Long A Prospect Street production for BBC Radio 4

“In the place where penitents stand, even the completely righteous cannot stand.” Berakhot 34B Last week we encountered this Talmudic teaching which privileges the struggle, the growth, the journey, the learning, of the person who realized they were not living their best life, and they embarked upon teshuvah to live a better life. This week we are going to double click on this teaching that prizes struggle and growth in two ways. One, what are the ideas behind it? We will see the perspectives of an arch rationalist (Maimonides), the Hasidic master Rebbi Nachman of Bratslov, and the founder of the Chabad-Lubavitch movement, the Alter Rebbe, who authored a work called The Tanya. Each has a different interpretation as to why struggle and growth are prized. Two, what does artwork that celebrates this kind of struggle and growth look like? We will examine works of Yoko Ono, Wish Tree, Frida Kahlo, The Two Fridas, and Yayoi Kusama, Infinity Mirrors. What do each of these works of art say about the journey of the soul that is teshuvah? May Shabbat Shuvah, and the teshuvah we each do in this season, bring us ever closer to the person we hope to become.

Sus pinturas tienen un estilo distintivo y único. Su uniceja se ha vuelto icónica. Si la has visto alguna vez, no la confundirás con ninguna otra persona. Frida Kahlo fue una mujer extremadamente fuerte, y sus obras de arte se inspiraron en los desafíos y los sufrimientos constantes de su vida. Parece que había un velo de misterio a su alrededor desde que nació. Si bien su año de nacimiento fue 1907, ella lo cambió a 1910. Y no lo hizo para ser 3 años más joven, sino para tener una conexión con la Revolución mexicana, que comenzó en 1910 y se prolongó hasta 1917. Learn more about your ad choices.

"Make love, take a bath, make love again."That was Frida Kahlo's motto—and sweetie, she LIVED by it.We all know about Frida's messy, horny marriage to Diego “Toad Face” Rivera and her revenge fling with Leon Trotsky.But what about the women? The affairs, the crushes, the rumors, the gossip that turned her into Mexico's most iconic bisexual?This week, we're serving you a slutty portrait of the artist as she truly was: a fearless, flirtatious rake who let the gossip mills churn while she tallied up an ever-increasing body count.We discuss:✨ Georgia O'Keeffe NOT making love to Frida while hospitalized (Frida's response: "Too bad.")✨ Hitting it off with the Real Housewife of Parisian Surrealism, Jacqueline Lamba, who kept Frida entertained at her first expo in Paris✨ A tasty rumour that Josephine Baker, the Beyoncé of 1930s Europe, reportedly got it on with the newly divorced Frida on the eve of WWII✨ Hollywood starlets and Mexican divas—like Dolores del Río and Paulette Goddard—getting plowed and painted by the Rivera-Kahlos back at the Casa Azul✨ Chavela Vargas, a ranchera rebel who moved in with Frida on the first date, serenading Frida while she painted✨ Why Frida's bisexuality mattered—it's not just gossip, but a core part of her art, politics, and legendSo grab your tequila and maybe pack an extra toothbrush—you never know where a night with Frida might end up.

In this episode, Alan Watts and Frida Kahlo come to teach us all about Paradox and Condradictions. They explain how paradox is the nature of creation itself. While we all try to cling to certainty, it's simply not possible. But if we can learn to ride the wave of paradox itself, we find balance.

In 1929, their marriage was likened to that between “an elephant and a dove.” But in the years following, their relationship would go on to prove far more complicated than their dissimilar appearances would reveal— and far more explosive. In this extra long episode of Significant Lovers, we unravel the intoxicatingly toxic relationship between Mexican artists Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera. From first their first meeting at 16 and 36 years old, to their first marriage, to their second, their love was as vivid and as volatile as the canvases they created. This episode has it all: cannibalism, political assassinations, affairs, divorce, bisexuality, art, Communism, fashion, and much, much more. Tune in to hear why Frida once claimed Diego was one of the two greatest accidents of her life.

*This is the Free Content version of my interview with Dr. Mariano Villalba. To access the full interview, please consider becoming a paid Patreon member; alternatively, this episode is also available for a one-time purchase here on Patreon (under 'Shop' tab). www.patreon.com/RejectedReligion My guest this month is Dr. Mariano Villalba. Mariano is a postdoctoral fellow in Spirituality and the Arts, in collaboration with the Giorgio Cini Foundation in Venice, the History of Hermetic Philosophy and Related Currents at the University of Amsterdam, and the Warburg Institute at the University of London.Mariano specializes in esotericism in Colonial America, contemporary Latin America, and early modern Spain. He completed a joint PhD in religious studies at the University of Lausanne and the French l'École Pratique des Hautes Études- Paris Sciences & Letters University.Mariano serves as the editor in chief of Melancolia, an annual journal dedicated to the study of esotericism in Latin America. His methodology combines a global history perspective on Colonial America with a decolonial approach, intersecting themes of race, gender, and imperialism to analyze modern occultism in Latin America. His new research project will focus on “Occult Movements and Mexican Mural Art: What Role Did Occult Movements Play in Mexican Mural Art During the Interwar Period?”In this episode, Mariano and I explore his groundbreaking research into the overlooked women of the Mexican muralist movement. Building on his earlier work, Mariano dives into the rich, complex history of Mexican muralism—an artistic revolution born from post-revolutionary ideals and dominated by the towering figures of “Los Tres Grandes.”But beyond the celebrated murals of Rivera, Orozco, and Siqueiros lies a hidden narrative: the women artists whose contributions were marginalized or erased. Mariano introduces us to several of these remarkable figures, focusing in particular on María Izquierdo and Sofía Bassi. He shares insights into their lives, artistic themes, and the esoteric influences that shaped their work, while unpacking why their legacies remain in the shadows compared to contemporaries like Frida Kahlo and Leonora Carrington.This episode is a compelling journey into art history, gender politics, and the mystical dimensions of creativity. Dr. Villalba also discusses the goals of his current project and how listeners can engage with the research on his online platform.An editing correction: Just a note to correct a mistake made during the interview: In the discussion about Frieda Kahlo's parents (a German father and a Mexican mother), Mariano mistakenly states that (María) Izquierdo was the daughter instead of Kahlo. There was a slight mix-up here as Mariano was comparing Frieda Kahlo and María Izquierdo. So please be aware of this when listening.PROGRAM NOTESMariano Villalba | Center for the Study of World ReligionsOccult Mexican art | Explore the Occult in Mexican visual artAbout Gender & Visual Arts | Discover Women's Insight — Occult Mexican artAbout Esotericism & Muralism | Explore Mexican Art — Occult Mexican artMuralism and Mexican Identity: Rediscovering the Esoteric Visions of Post-Revolution Female Artists: Q&A with Mariano Villalba | Center for the Study of World ReligionsOccult Movements and Mexican Mural Art | Center for the Study of World ReligionsThe Visionary World of Sofía Bassi | Center for the Study of World ReligionsFundación | Sofia BassiEsotericism, Gender, and the Legacy of a Mexican Artist | Center for the Study of World ReligionsMariano Villalba - Harvard University Music and Editing: Daniel P.
