Happy Birthday to Eva Hesse who was born on this day in 1936.

“If a material is liquid … I can control it but I don’t really want to change it. I don’t want to add color or make it thicker or thinner… I don’t want to keep any rules; I want to sometimes change the rules. But in that sense, process, the materials, become important and I do so little with them, which is I guess the absurdity.” – Eva Hesse in conversation with Cindy Nemser, 1970.

Eva Hesse (1936-1970) was a highly experimental artist who continually challenged the conventions of her time. For Hesse, drawing played a unique role, providing the nexus between her works in all media. "Eva Hesse Drawing" is the first book to explore her drawing process, following her work from drawing to painting and sculpture, and always back to drawing. An accomplished draftswoman, Hesse began to develop her wandering, tentative line while studying at Yale University in the late 1950s. (summarized from the publisher’s note)

Happy Bornday to our greatest Baseball Player and Humanitarian our world w Reposted from @jimvanderlans Remembering Roberto Clemente who was born on this day in 1934. Pittsburgh Pirates (1955–1972) ⚾ Batting average = .317 ⚾ Hits = 3,000 ⚾ Home runs = 240 ⚾ Runs batted in = 1,305 🏆 2× World Series Champion (1960, 1971) ⭐ 15× All-Star (1960–1967, 1969–1972) 🏆 NL MVP (1966) ⭐ World Series MVP (1971) ⭐ 12× Gold Glove Award (1961–1972) ⭐ 4× NL batting champion (1961, 1964, 1965, 1967) 💯 Pittsburgh Pirates No. 21 retired 💯 Member – Baseball Hall of Fame ✅ "He was a very serious and dedicated individual when it came to anything he did in life. Professional… Quiet, but firm. Dedicated completely. He had a lot of pride in being Roberto Clemente the baseball player, but it was not the type of pride where he thought he had authority to demean other people. He never did that. He was simply proud of the ballplayer that he was. I think bottom line for him was trying to show other Puerto Ricans and other human beings that regardless of how poor you are, the color of your skin, your main language, if you dedicate yourself to a cause, you can be a winner. That was bottom line for him." —Luis Mayoral Latin American baseball executive, former broadcaster, and friend of Clemente #robertoclemente #pittsburghpirates #pittsburghpiratesbaseball #piratesbaseball #pittsburgh #baseballlegend #baseballgreat #mlb #mlbhistory #mlbvault #baseballhistorians #atbatresearchgroup #baseballhalloffame #baseballhistory #happybirthday #bornonthisday #OnThisDay #mlbnetwork #baseball #otdmlb #prflagsup #puertoricanflagsup https://www.instagram.com/p/ChZ4DUMOBmy/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

In the early 1930s Buchalter and Italian-American gangsters, Lucky Luciano and Johnny Torrio--the former Chicago mob boss and mentor of transplanted New Yorker Al Capone--allied themselves. Luciano's Jewish-American associates Bugsy Siegel and Meyer Lansky formed "Murder Inc.", a group of professional killers who would be on call 24/7 to handle any "problems" that afflicted La Cosa Nostra. #MafiaHistory #BornOnThisDay #EarlyHappyHour today at 4:30PM at #GaetanosDenver (at Gaetano's Restaurant) https://www.instagram.com/p/CoVT59pPOB8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Photography had always been a part of Frida Kahlo's life since she was born. Her father Guillermo Kahlo was one of the great Mexican photographers at the beginning of the twentieth century.

When Kahlo died in 1954, her husband Diego Rivera asked the poet Carlos Pellicer to turn her family home, the fabled Blue House (La Casa Azul), into a museum. Pellicer selected some paintings, drawings, photographs, books, and ceramics, maintaining the space just as Kahlo and Rivera had arranged it to live and work in. The rest of the objects, clothing, documents, drawings, and letters, as well as over 6,000 photographs collected by Kahlo over the course of her life, were put away in bathrooms that had been converted into storerooms.

This incredible trove remained hidden for more than half a century, until just over a decade ago when these storerooms and wardrobes were opened. Among these finds, Kahlo's photograph collection was a major revelation, bearing testimony to the tastes and interests of the famous couple not only through the images themselves, but also through the telling annotations inscribed upon them. (Summarized from the publisher’s notes)

Today is Frida Kahlo’s birthday. She was born inCoyoacán in Mexico City on July 6, 1907, and died in Coyoacán on July 13, 1954.
