\u201cMexico City of the 1920s and \u201830s was a vibrant cosmopolitan artistic center, drawing modernists from all over the world, including photographers from the United States. In turn, Mexican painters traveled to the United States for commissions and exhibition opportunities, giving rise to further hemispheric interchange. This presentation focuses on the creative practices of a tight circle of friends\u2014Edward Weston, Tina Modotti, Diego Rivera, and Frida Kahlo\u2014and specifically on the bodies of work each artist made in the other\u2019s country. I argue that artistic dialog between nations is one way of crossing borders, and that the rich legacy of inter-American modernist exchange still resonates one-hundred-years later.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
