Join our specialist Lauren as she discusses the importance of Francisco Zúñiga.

In Dos Mujeres de Pie, 1965, Zúñiga addresses his most prevalent subjects: strong, heroic indigenous women. Often carrying children or squatting to cook, these women are powerful figures symbolizing maternity, fertility and strength. Born in 1912 to a family of sculptors, Francisco Zúñiga grew up in Costa Rica before moving permanently to Mexico in 1936. While he created paintings, watercolors and drawings throughout his life, once in Mexico he dedicated his work to sculpture, producing major public works installed around the world.
