untitled (Double Portrait) — Mixed Media Collage by Rodolfo Morales
Located in Palm Springs, CA
A vibrant and emotionally charged mixed-media collage by Rodolfo Morales (1925–2001), one of the central figures of the Oaxacan school alongside Rufino Tamayo and Francisco Toledo. Morales is celebrated for his dreamlike vision of village life, the female presence, and the thin, poetic line between the real and the magical.
This unusual double portrait features two frontal figures—rendered in Morales’ signature palette of saturated reds, golds, and earth tones—set against a radiant background of foils, hearts, and patterned papers. The faces, both direct and expressive, seem to mirror each other while remaining psychologically distinct. Morales constructs them from layered paper, painted elements, and bits of lace and metallic foil, each detail contributing to an atmosphere that is both intimate and theatrical.
The composition is framed by its original hand-punched tin (hojalata) frame, a hallmark of Morales’ mixed-media works. These frames were often designed in collaboration with local Oaxacan art...
