Summary:

For those who knew Dr. Ruth Deutsch Lechuga (b. Viena, Austria 1920, exiled in Mexico in 1939 - d. México, 2004), seeing her Pink Room (her vivid, Mexican pink painted bedroom ) was as essential as visiting Frida Kahlo's "Blue House" or certain galleries of the National Anthropology Museum. Put together obsessively by the best-traveled scholar in the 20th century of the deepest heart of Mexico, it contained both modest and astonishing pieces from the carnival of shapes created in this country on the subject of death. As Margarita de Orellana states, "Her collection is one of Mexico's finest, the apartment she lived in formed an unsuspected island within the city, and the Pink Room was an island within this island, the dancing, rollicking heart of Mexican creativity."
