In a Cloud, in a Wall, in a Chair: Six Modernists in Mexico at Midcentury brings together for the first time an exceptional body of art and design by Clara Porset, Lola Álvarez Bravo, Cynthia Sargent, Anni Albers, Ruth Asawa, and Sheila Hicks, who were each encouraged to develop work that was a reflection of and contributed greatly to the rich artistic landscape of Mexico at this time. Through furniture, drawings, textiles, sculptures, and photomontages, some rarely exhibited before or brought together in this way, this exhibition is a unique opportunity to further understand the fertile artistic environment of Mexico during this period.
