The article discusses books and authors. In his book on modern Mexican painting, "Contemporary Mexican Artists" writer Agustin Veinquez Chavez undertook to supply the growing need for a source-and-reference handbook of the "movement" which is exercising such a potent influence on modern American painting. The men who founded this movement in 1922 knew very well what an important job they were doing, that theirs was the most significant step in art since the revolt of the European moderns-the effort to join modern painting to current social needs and architectural development.
