Mexico: 1526–2026 Post-Contact to Present

Following three hundred years of Spanish rule, Mexico gained its independence in 1821. From the arrival of Cortés through independence and into the modern era, Mexican art and culture have evolved through periods of intense Westernization, hybridization, and revival.

In this session, we will explore early codices, Baroque architecture, the advent of modernism, Mexican Muralism, and recent developments in the art of our neighbors to the south. Mexico: 1526–2026 will be offered by guest lecturer Thomas Germano, Professor of Art History at Farmingdale State College and two-time recipient of NEA grants for the study of Mesoamerican art history.
