The talk will be a brief recounting of Diego Rivera's visits to San Francisco, which bookend the relatively short span of time he actually spent in the U.S. The talk will include little known anecdotes about the connections in the artist's world, material gleaned mainly from the Diego Rivera collection at City College of San Francisco's Rosenberg Library.
Will Maynez is the Physics Department lab manager at the City College of San Francisco. Trained as a painter, he has spent the last 14 years investigating the college's Pan American Unity mural and Rivera's theme of the reconciliation of art and science.
