The Museum of Mexican Women Artists has called her the "first great Mexican painter of the twentieth century."[1] Cabrera’s childhood was marked by the death of her parents and their influence on her artistic abilities.[2] Early lifeCabrera studied at the Escuela Nacional de Bellas Artes starting in 1916 and had her first individual exhibition at the school in December 1920.[2] Cabrera’s landscapes and portraiture were the focus of her career which displayed a range of artistic styles from realism to impressionism.[2] She also studied sculpture and had a keen sense of proportion and shape.[2] Cabrera was one of the first women to become involved in wood engraving following her involvement with Alfredo Ramos Martínez and the Open Air Painting Schools.[2] Cabrera spent time in Europe in the 1920s pursuing her art practice before returning to Mexico to focus on teaching art to young Mexican artists. She became the first woman in Mexico to teach two painting classes; one in Los Reyes, Coyoacan and the other in Cholula, Puebla.[2] Cabrera received much recognition for her art during her lifetime. She was the first Mexican woman to have an exhibition Paris in 1925 at the Galerie Bernheim-Jeune.[8] TeachingCabrera's involvement with the Open Air Painting Schools, also referred to as The Escuelas de Pintura al Aire Libres or EPALs, began through her relationships with painters such as Alfredo Ramos Martínez, the school's original promoter.[1] After experiencing life and artistic culture in Europe from November 1924 to January 1927, possible through a pension given to her by the Secretaría de Educación Pública, Cabrera returned to Mexico to work in the Open Air Painting Schools between 1928 and 1931.[1] There, she became the first woman to serve as director of two EPALs, teaching alongside notable Mexican artists such as Saturnino Herrán, Leandro Izaguirre, and Germán Gedovius.[2] Education activismCabrera would continue on to defend the Open Air Painting Schools during the late 1920s, as they faced criticism from the members of educational and artistic communities in Mexico.[1] In response to such criticisms, Cabrera became fully engaged in the realm of arts education,[1] committed to the goal of making art accessible to a greater population, especially in rural communities.[3] In 1928, Cabrera's continued passion for activism was seen in her involvement with the avant-garde ¡30-30! group, formed in protest of the appointment of a new director at the National School of Fine Arts.[3] Such a decision was seen as a threat to centers of alternative art instruction, including the open air painting schools.[3] Even after her retirement as a painter in 1928, Cabrera continued to teach the arts in primary schools,[1] taking what author Tatiana Flores writes to be "a more socially conscious path".[3] Despite her short career as a painter, Cabrera would continue to receive praise for her talents through the work of her students, displayed at the Museo del Palacio de Bellas Artes in Mexico City.[1] ¡30-30! MovementDue to the struggle between the Academy of San Carlos and the Open Air Schools of Painting in Mexico, mostly based around the fact that the Academy believed that the Open Air Schools were not creating actual art, a new anti-academic movement formed called the ¡30-30! movement, one that Cabrera joined.[4] As a collective, the movement produced five manifestos; Cabrera’s signature was found on the fifth, which attempted to oust the director of the Academy at the time.[4] Awards and RecognitionAlthough she went against the Academy later in her life, Cabrera was a student at the Academy in her earlier years.[5] She was viewed as the best student in her class, as stated by Raquel Reichard, receiving the highest grade and special recognition at her graduation.[5] Despite being a decorated artist, she chose to focus more on a career as a professor after the opening of the Open Air Painting Schools around 1928.[5] In 1929, Cabrera was awarded the gold medal at the Iberoamerican Fair in Spain.[5] In 1972, former President of Mexico Luis Echeverría Alvarez awarded her the medal of Maestro Manuel Ignacio Altamirano to commemorate her achievement in the arts.[5] Artistic StyleAccording to scholars such as Eduardo Espinosa Campos, Rosario Cabrera’s works are seen as drifting from the work of her contemporaries.[1] She chose to explore portraiture rather than landscapes, gathering inspiration from the Impressionist, Post-Impressionist, and Fauvist movements.[3] This can be seen through her use of broad brush strokes and unnatural colors, as well as her decision to portray the “spirit” and emotions of her subjects, rather than a more realistic depiction.[1][3] For many of her works, Cabrera applied oil paints on canvas in a way that would imitate the look of frescoes.[1] Although she did not choose to paint realistic figures, her sculptures were very much focused on realism and conveying accurate human anatomy.[1] See also
