EAT, DRINK & THINK LIKE …DIEGO RIVERA
In 1932, Mexican muralist Diego Rivera was the subject of MoMA’s second single-artist exhibition, which set new attendance records during its five-week run. Current MoMA curator Leah Dickerman tells the astounding story of the artist’s focus on New York subjects through monumental images of the urban working class and the social stratification of the city during the Great Depression, a period during which he also produced the famous Rockefeller Center mural. Hear how Rivera moved between Russia, Mexico and the United States, embodying the intersection of art and radical politics in the 1930s. Take a fresh look at the food of Mexico with a culinary historian and enjoy a taste of traditional Mexican cuisine―in food and drink―as Diego Rivera would have. Dickerman is curator of painting and sculpture at the Museum of Modern Art and organized the exhibition “Diego Rivera: Murals for the Museum of Modern Art,” on view through May 14.

JEWS AND BOOZE: BECOMING AMERICAN IN THE AGE OF PROHIBITION
At the turn of the century, American Jews and prohibitionists viewed one another with growing suspicion. Jews believed Americans had the right to sell and consume alcohol, while prohibitionists insisted alcohol threatened the nation’s morality. In 1920, when alcohol was declared illegal, Jews discovered that anti-Semitic sentiments had mixed with anti-alcohol ideology, threatening their reputation and standing in American society.
