Mexico’s colorful twentieth century of Revolution, murals, mass media, and magical realism includes the works of great women writers, artists, and directors. After a backward glance to icons of the Conquest and the Colony, we jump to: tales of women of the Mexican Revolution; women painters of the ‘30s and ‘40s; indigenism, feminism, and anthropological theory of the ‘60s-‘80s; and contemporary ironic realism and magical realism in fiction and film.
