    Unconventional, visionary, “ugly chic”; these are all words used to describe the undoubtedly influential Miuccia Prada. Miuccia Prada’s footprint on the fashion industry is both significant and enduring in an industry where trends and designers fade out as quickly as the come in. Although Prada is often noted as the anti-thesis of a typical designer, or the anti-fashionista, her work as a designer and artist influences and inspires both the traditional and untraditional (Miuccia Prada: The Reluctant Fashionista, n.d). Miuccia Prada has created a strong identity for herself as a designer who combines the avant-garde with the ready-to-wear, the ugly with the delicate, luxury without the sex appeal, and a classicism that often embraces outlandish fusions of colors and patterns. She describes her own work as a way to “express, in a simple banal object, a great complexity about women, aesthetics, and current times”(Lovinski, 2010). Even with no formal background or training in design, Prada still creates fashions that are ahead of the times, constantly pushing herself to new limits and often embracing what she even typically dislikes to find beauty in the unordinary.…

    2. Two individuals I selected from the Voces Vivas in the museum I chose were David A. Siqeiros and Andres Laguna. David Siqeiros was a political muralist who expressed his social views in his artwork. He was a communist/socialist. Sieiros was born in December 29, 1896, in Chihuahua, Mexico. Much of his artwork reflected the oppression of Chicanos in the United States. The most famous mural he painted was the “America Tropical”. It was 82ft by 18ft and was done in La Placita Olvera. This mural reflected imperialism and the exploitation inflicted on the indigenous people of Latin America by the Spanish/European powers. There was much controversy with the mural and its meaning, it was later destroyed. The other person I selected was Andre Laguna, a Linotypist for La Opinion. Laguna was born in El Districto Federal De Mexico. A…
