Also for Ana Mendieta

In the spring of 2007 Berlin was full of ads that read as a slogan: "The most beautiful come from New York". Those posters referred to the sample of impressionistic art from the Museum of Modern Art of New York that was being exhibited in those days in the German capital. Such phrase not only provoked the French and had a very fine and hyperbolic sense of humor but also alluded to a well known truth: the repertoire of universal art of all times and latitudes that for different reasons is treasured in museums and private collections in the United States of America is overwhelming.

It would suffice to recall just the excellent sample Cubism and Abstract Art exhibited in the United States in 1936 as a result of the tours undertaken by Alfred Barr in the European continent, specifically in the Soviet Union (1927) in spite of the fact that his visit to Moscow deceived him a little, since he found that many of the great Russian artists at the time were devoted to design and to serial productions, as in the case of the so-called factography. But still, that great exhibition remained, even though the representation of this period was minimal.
