  • Free with museum admission, no registration required

Chicago-based harpist Zacbe Pichardo presents a recital of traditional Mexican folk music in response to Diego Rivera’s The Weaver (1936) and Jose Clemente Orozco’s Zapata (1930).

Artists Connect is a series of in-gallery programs that highlight the creative process. Artists, poets, dancers, and musicians engage with works of art, making connections to their own practice and inspiring new ways of understanding the Art Institute’s collection

Featured Artworks

Painting of an Indigenous woman native to Mexico bent and seated on a brown floor, using red thread to create a geometric design on a backstrap loom. Earth tones dominate, while a dresser in the background and the bottom portion of the woman's white dress are a deep blue.

Diego Rivera

Painting in shades of dark red, brown, and black, depicting figures crowded in a doorway of a small hut, engaged in conflict. One man looms in front of the doorway with a stoic expression, and four other figures kneel and stand beside him. One points a sword at his face.

José Clemente Orozco

Persons with disabilities who would like to request an accessibility accommodation for an Art Institute program are encouraged to send an email to access@artic.edu two weeks in advance of the program. 

Sponsors

Support for public programs is provided in part by the Woman’s Board of the Art Institute of Chicago.
