Rufino Tamayo in Paris : 1950-1960
Fabiola Martínez Rodríguez received her PhD from the University of the Arts London, and since 2007 has been the director of the Art History program at SLU Madrid.
While the literature on Mexican artist Rufino Tamayo (1899-1991) is quite extensive, very little has been written about his time in Paris in the 1950s. The research she undertakes in Paris in the Research residency of the École des modernités at the Institut Giacometti explores the significance of his Parisian network, artistic collaborations, and critical responses to his work. Based on this material she analyses the cosmopolitan aesthetics of Tamayo’s artistic practice, and his contributions to the Parisian artworld.
