Rhymes and reason: 'Poetic Justice'
JUDITH F. BACA
Bio: After completing graduate school at California State University-Northridge in 1979, Baca, who’s 75, traveled to Mexico to study at Mexican muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros’ workshop, Taller Siqueiros (now called La Tallera). There, she studied directly under former students of the famed modernist. Siqueiros (1896-1974), like his contemporaries, Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco, was known for works of social realism, and his murals often reflected themes of social justice. And so do Baca’s. -- Santa Fe New Mexican
