This is just an excerp of a long report in Spanish.
Diego Rivera Left a couple of boxes
with 3 thousand pieces of papers that were to be open fifteen years
after his death in 1957. Almost half a century later,
the boxes were opened in front of the proper authorities from the
Foundation Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo. the Bank of Mexico and a
daughter and a grandson.
The documents have to be catalogued, wrapped in conservation non acid
folders. The researchers will have documentation about his last years,
his political views and other personal matters.
Por Edgar Hernández Grupo Reforma
Ciudad de México (21 julio 2003).- Pocos meses antes de morir, el
muralista Diego Rivera (1886-1957) ordenó a sus secretarias Elena Vázquez
Gómez y Teresa Provenza guardar en cajas de madera diversos documentos
personales y pidió que no se abrieran hasta 15 años después de su muerte.
Después de casi medio siglo de permanecer oculto y cerrado, el llamado
"archivo secreto" fue abierto el pasado 4 de junio por el Fideicomiso
Diego Rivera y Frida Kahlo del Banco de México.
