Costa Rican-born artist Zúñiga (1912-1998) was primarily a painter up until 1936, when he
moved to Mexico and became an important figure in Mexico's political moderne style,
with his life-sized stone and bronze sculptures of indigenous women with big
proportions and tightly wrapped shawls. His art reflects a great respect for the cultures and
people of Central America and is in the permanent collections of the Metropolitan Museum of
Art and Museum of Modern Art in New York, the Museo de Arte Moderno in Mexico City
and the Hirshborn Museum in Washington, D. C., among others.
