I don't remember where I overheard a group of local primary school children, but it was clear they knew about Frida (Kahlo) and Diego (Rivera). I'm wondering if they know because it's in the air or hear about them at school or have been to the Diego Rivera house or know their faces are on the two sides of the Mexican 500 peso note or all of the above.
Watch for the special showing of Diego Rivera sketches in the right-hand gallery, main UG building, during the Cervantino.
My main Mexican blog is MEXIGUANA www.rochellecashdan.blogspot.com but here I post other tidbits, especially photos of art exhibits in Guanajuato, along with my translation of a famed Guanajuato legend. To read my online stories and poems, google rochelle cashdan.
