| In 1821, three hundred years after Cortes conquered the Aztecs, and eleven years after Mexico achieved independence from Spain, Agustin de Iturbide I became emperor of the new nation and fashioned a royal court in the Spanish tradition after disbanding the Mexican national congress. The works of black artists such as Radcliff Bailey, Whitfield Lovell, Gordon Parks and Carrie Mae Weems are included alongside the works of many non-black artists including Graciela Iturbide, Helen Levitt and Ben Shahn. The process of Mexican independence from Spain began with the 1810 uprising of Father Hidalgo and his plebeian followers and ended eleven years later when Iturbide, a former Spanish officer, proclaimed himself emperor of the republic. |
