SUMMARY:The Golden Age of Mexican Cinema
DESCRIPTION:Friday\, February 25\n6:00–8:00 p.m. PT\nSpeaker: Gregorio Luke\, former Director of the Museum of Latin American Art\, Consul of Cultural Affairs of Mexico in Los Angeles\, and the First Secretary of the embassy of Mexico in Washington D.C.\nVirtual Event \n  \nExplore the fascinating world of the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema with Gregorio Luke. The storytelling of films provides new inspiration for learning beyond your expectations. \nMexico’s film industry has experienced astounding growth over the last two decades. A resurgence of great artistic talent from directors\, screenwriters\, producers and filmmakers are noted by the work of Guillermo del Toro\, Alejandro G. Iñárritu\, and Alfonso Cuarón\, just to name a few. Their success has provided access to the diversification of Mexico’s stories from underrepresented groups and unconventional concepts. \nThis new wave of film production is historically celebrated with the Golden Age of Mexican Cinema that dominated the Latin American film industry from the 1930s to the 1960s. Topics evolved from the provincial society of Mexico at that time to the inspirations of masculinity\, family\, ethnicity\, and music. Fernando de Fuentes\, Emilio “El Indio” Fernández Romo\, Alejandro Galindo\, Ismael Rodriguez\, and Luis Buñuel became popular directors that challenged the traditional values of Mexican society\, including politically. Iconic actors such as Cantinflas\, Maria Felix\, Dolores del Rio\, Pedro Infante\, and Jorge Negrete were renowned internationally. \n  \nGregorio Luke has given over 1\,000 lectures worldwide from The Library of Congress to universities such as Harvard\, Columbia\, and Georgetown. Luke is an expert on Mexican and Latin American art and culture. He is the former Director of the Museum of Latin American Art\, Consul of Cultural Affairs of Mexico in Los Angeles\, and the First Secretary of the Embassy of Mexico in Washington\, D.C. \n  \nReserve your spot by clicking on this link.

SUMMARY:From Forts and Palaces: Paintings Made for the Rajputs
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, February 26\n10:00 a.m.–noon PT\nSpeaker: Joan Cummins\, Lisa and Bernard Selz Senior Curator of Asian Art\, Brooklyn Museum\nVirtual Event \n  \nFrom the sixteenth through the nineteenth centuries\, most of northern India was under the rule of the Mughal empire\, but regional kings maintained some control over their traditional domains. Many of these kings were Rajputs\, celebrated for their prowess in warfare\, their staunch support of Hinduism\, and the impressive architecture of their capitals. Among the Rajputs there were some who patronized large workshops of artists producing very colorful\, very elaborately detailed illustrated manuscripts depicting life at court\, Hindu epics\, and poetic themes. \nThrough beautiful images\, this talk will introduce the Rajputs and the arts they patronized\, with an emphasis on manuscript paintings. We will look at the ways that Rajput rulers used art as a way to promote specific ideas about their power\, their traditions\, and their position in relation to the ruling Mughal emperors\, and later the British. The talk will touch on the ways that the paintings were made and used\, and will include some choice examples from The San Diego Museum of Art’s Edwin Binney collection of manuscript illustrations. \n  \nPlease reserve your spot by clicking on this link. All participants will be sent the Zoom link and instructions via email once you secure your place. Space is limited. \nSave my spot! \nFree for active South Asian Arts Council (renewed for 2021-2022) and SDMA members | $10 for all others \n  \nSponsored by the South Asian Arts Council. \n  \nFeatured at top right: Maharaja Ram Singh of Kota\, mid-19th century\, Rajasthan.
