    Right-sided heart failure is a consequence of left ventricular failure. When the fluid pressure increases in the left ventricle, but is too weak to pump the fluid out into the aorta, the fluid regurgitates into the left atrium and subsequently backs up into the lungs. In the same manner, the right ventricle pump deoxygenated blood to the pulmonic vein but is met with great resistance due to congested lungs, thereby pushing the fluid back into the right atrium, and into the vena cava. This backing up of blood causes swelling of the abdomen, legs and ankle.…

As if that wasn’t a bad enough start his parents tasked him with remembering all 23 of his names, Pablo Diego José Francisco de Paula Juan Nepomuceno María de los Remedios Cipriano de la Santísima Trinidad Martyr Patricio Clito Ruíz y Picasso. As he grew and began to speak, his first and favorite word was “piz” short for lapiz, ironically meaning pencil for this future artist.

    About twenty-six Mexican men risked their lives on the journey to cross the deadly desert to the United States.

    Rivera believed that his friendship with Rockefeller’s family would allow him to add an unapproved picture of the Soviet leader of the time named Vladimir Lenin into the section of his painting that portrayed a May Day parade. However, Rivera did not know that the real decision is with the Center’s building managers, and they hated it. They ordered Rivera to remove Lenin’s image after building management found articles attacking the mural's anti-capitalist ideology. Rivera refused, but he did offer to balance the work with an image of Abraham Lincoln on the opposing side. The managers wouldn’t do it, so they paid his full fee, barred him from the site, and they hid the mural behind a drape. Compromisers, who were supporters of Rivera, attempted to take the work to the Museum of Modern Art, but it was to no avail. Around midnight on the day of February 10th, 1934, Rockefeller Center workmen destroyed the mural with axes. Later, Rivera got the opportunity to recreate the frescoes in the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City, and he did, completing what he had originally started. Never again did Diego Rivera paint in the United States, but he did continue to be active in both artistic and political arenas, all the way to his death in the year of…

In fact, Rivera had four marriages and several children in and out of wedlock and was known for his infidelity. However, by this point in time, Rivera's health was worsening.

Diego Rivera is remembered as an important figure in 20th century art. His childhood home is now a museum in Mexico. Rivera’s work is important because it came at a time when revolutions were springing everywhere. Rivera made it obvious that he was an atheist and a supporter of Marxism and used painting as an outlet to express these beliefs. Rivera’s perspective on the role of an artist to their community was crucial to governmental initiatives such as Franklin Roosevelt's Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration, whose artists depicted scenes from American life on public buildings. Rivera’s work inspired artists such as Ben Shahn, Thomas Hart Benton, and Jackson…

Not only was she known for her fascinating artwork but was also known as the wife of the famous muralist Diego Rivera. In a way Frida Kahlo was destined to suffer. According to the book, Frida Kahlo: The Brush of Anguish, Martha Zamora states that, at the age of six Kahlo was diagnosed with polio and her father was the only one who got her through that (18). As Kahlo got older she had the life she had always wanted up until September 1925. Kahlo was on her way home when the bus she was on got into a huge accident.
