# Music of the Maison Ikkoku series

This is a list of **music of the *Maison Ikkoku* series**. It lists individual theme and other songs, singles, as well as music, drama, and collection albums from the anime and live-action releases as well as game soundtracks.

## Theme songs

*Maison Ikkoku* had an anime television series (96 episodes from March 1986 to March 1988), a live-action film (10 October 1986), an anime television film (February 1988), three OVAs (1988–1992), and a two episode live-action film series (2007–2008). For the most part, all of them had different theme and incidental music.

### Television series themes

The opening and ending theme songs in the anime television series changed periodically, and were sung by several different popular singers and groups from Japan and one from Ireland, including Anzen Chitai, Takao Kisugi, Kiyonori Matsuo, Kōzō Murashita, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Picasso, and Yuki Saito.

#### Opening themes

* "Fantasy" by Picasso (episodes 34–52)

* "Begin the Night" by Picasso (episodes 77–96)

### Live-action movie theme

The live action film, released 10 October 1986 through Toei and Kitty Film in Japan, reused the two Gilbert O'Sullivan songs as themes. "Alone Again (Naturally)" and "Get Down" had previously been used as the theme songs for episode 24 of the anime television series on 3 September 1986. Outside of those two themes, the soundtrack for the film was composed by Joe Hisaishi.

### Anime television movie theme

"Glass Kiss", the theme song for ***Maison Ikkoku Final*** (めぞん一刻 完結篇, *Mezon Ikkoku Kanketsuhen*), was sung by Rika Himenogi. It was released as a single on 3 February 1988 by Kitty Records. It reached #21 on the Oricon charts and sold over 260,000 copies.

### OVA themes

There were three OVAs released from 1988 to 1992.

* *Highlights: Through the Passing Seasons* was released on 25 September 1988 and had music composed by Kenji Kawai and Takao Sugiyama.
* *Side Story: Ikkoku Island Flirtation Story* was released 31 January 1991 and used "Kanashimi yo Konnichi wa" as a theme song. Additional music was composed by Kenji Kawai, Takao Sugiyama, and Hideharu Mori.

### Live-action television film series

The ending theme for the 2007–2008 two-part *Maison Ikkoku* television drama series was *Mamotte Agetai* by Yumi Matsutoya. The song was originally released on 21 June 1981 through Toshiba EMI.

# Uppland Runic Inscription 755

**U 755** is the Rundata designation for a Viking Age memorial runestone located in Kälsta, Uppland, Sweden.

## Description

This runestone was first documented by Richard Dybeck, who is known as the author of the lyrics to the Swedish national anthem, in 1860: "The runestone stands between Litslena and Herkeberga Church, so close to the edge of the road by Kalstad - part of the lower inscription has been damaged."

The cross on the stone indicates that Ágautr was a Christian. The name Ágautr does not appear in any other material (either other rune inscriptions or middle age sources). Lidhsmadhr is also an unusual name, there is however a mention on another runestone in nearby Simtuna with this name, on inscription U 1160, which possibly could reference the same person.

The place name Kelsstaðir in the runic text, sometimes read as Kal-taþum, refers to the modern hamlet of Kälsta.

## Inscription

A transliteration of the runic inscription is:

**\+ lis(m)\[a\]--... auk + tuki + rastu × stain + (þ)i(n)a + aftir + akaut + bu(k)i + i + k\[a\](l)\[staþ\](u)m**

# Percival Kirby

**Percival Robson Kirby** (17 April 1887 – 8 February 1970) was a Scottish-born South African ethnomusicologist, musicologist, historian, and professor. He is best known for his work on the study and preservation of southern African indigenous music, particularly his pioneering text *The Musical Instruments of the Native Races of South Africa* (1934). Kirby played a significant role in documenting and preserving African musical traditions during his tenure as Professor of Music at the University of the Witwatersrand.

## Early life and education

Kirby was born in Aberdeen, Scotland, where he developed an early interest in music. He played the flute and timpani with local orchestras during his youth. Kirby was educated at the Church of Scotland Normal College, Aberdeen, where he trained as a schoolteacher, and later at the University of Aberdeen, from which he graduated with a Master of Arts degree in 1910.

In 1910, Kirby received a scholarship to study at the Royal College of Music in London. There, he studied under Daniel S. Wood (flute), Herbert Sharpe (piano), Charles Wood (counterpoint and harmony), and Charles Villiers Stanford (composition). Kirby was awarded the Diploma of Associate of the Royal College of Music in 1913 for composition.

## Career in South Africa

In early 1914, Kirby relocated to South Africa after being appointed as the Music Organiser for the Natal Education Department. This role marked the beginning of his influential career in South Africa. After seven years with the Natal Education Department, Kirby was appointed as the Chair of the Music Department at the University College, Johannesburg, in 1921. This institution would later become the University of the Witwatersrand.

Kirby was the first person to hold the position of Professor of Music at the University of the Witwatersrand, where he served for thirty-one years until his retirement in 1952. During his tenure, he played a pivotal role in developing the music department and expanding the scope of music education in South Africa. Kirby published extensively throughout his life and in various fields. Kirby's legacy as a lecturer was far-reaching in South African music studies, with notable students including Anton Hartman, Rosa Nepgen, and Yvonne Huskisson. Mieke Struwig has discussed Kirby's influential impact as a scholar and supervisor of many music students at the University of the Witwatersrand.

Kirby was awarded the degree D.Litt. in 1931 on the merits of a thesis entitled "Literary Contributions to the Study of Music" and was made a Fellow of the Royal College of Music (1924) and the Royal Anthropological Institute of Great Britain and Ireland (1936). Rhodes University conferred upon Kirby the honorary degree of Doctor of Literature in 1965.

## Ethnomusicological work

Kirby's ethnomusicological research, particularly his work on African musical instruments, remains a cornerstone in the field. His most famous publication, *The Musical Instruments of the Native Races of South Africa* (1934), is regarded as one of the first comprehensive studies of African musicology. Kirby's research involved extensive fieldwork throughout southern Africa, where he collected and documented various indigenous musical instruments. The text has been republished several times, with the most recent edition, *Musical Instruments of the Indigenous People of South Africa*, released in 2013.

Despite its impact, Kirby's ethnomusicological work has been critiqued. Scholars like Veit Erlmann and Grant Olwage have pointed out that Kirby's devotion to—in Olwage's words—"tribe and tradition" created what W.D. Hammond-Tooke described as "static and nostalgic images" of indigenous cultures. As noted by Olwage, David Coplan, and Struwig, there are also problematic evolutionary attitudes in Kirby's work, depicting non-Western musics as essentialist, historical precursors to Western Music. Nevertheless, scholars like Coplan and Kofi Agawu have praised his work for its thoroughness and its lasting importance in the study of the organology of southern African indigenous music.

## Musicological work

Kirby's first monograph, entitled *The Kettledrums: A Book for Composers, Conductors and Kettledrummers*, was published in 1930. Despite his enduring legacy in ethnomusicology, this book and several publications on musical theatre and western art music illustrate the diversity of his musical work, covering topics such as acoustics, music analysis, music history, and organology. In 1938, Kirby published an article entitled "Saint Cecilia Goes South: A Contribution to the History of Music in South Africa", which serves as a brief overview of the history of Western music in South Africa and highlights how Western music has been adopted within indigenous communities, linking his work and views in musicology, history, and ethnomusicology into one text.

## Composer

Kirby's entry in the *South African Music Encyclopedia* (vol. 3, 1984), includes a long list of compositions, most existing only in manuscript form. Only two of his compositions—*Three African Idylls*, for soprano solo with piano accompaniment (Witwatersrand University Press, Johannesburg, 1939/1940), and *O mistress mine*, for unaccompanied mixed chorus, text by William Shakespeare (J. Curwen & Sons, London, 1961)—are listed as published.

## Historical work

Kirby's work was not limited to music. As an historian, he published extensively, especially after his retirement as Professor of Music at the University of the Witwatersrand in 1952. Kirby was involved with the South African Museums' Association and was made president of the association several times. His historical works include texts on local history and European exploration. Jonathan Hughes has disputed the accuracy of an article published by Kirby on a historic William Hill chamber organ at Wesley Methodist Church, Makhanda. Given that the instrument is currently the oldest playable pipe organ in South Africa, the article has been widely cited, despite several inaccurate claims made by Kirby without evidence.

## Legacy

Percival Robson Kirby's contributions to musicology and ethnomusicology have had a lasting impact on the study of African music. His large collection of more than six hundred musical instruments—many pre-dating 1934—is currently held by the South African College of Music, University of Cape Town. Kirby's work has been instrumental in preserving the rich musical heritage of southern Africa and continues to influence the field of ethnomusicology.

Following his retirement, Kirby settled in erstwhile Grahamstown, where he lived until his death on 8 February 1970. His legacy is measured through his influential publications, his collection of African musical instruments, and his role in advancing the study of indigenous music in South Africa.

# Saskatchewan Highway 969

**Highway 969** is a provincial highway in the north-east region of the Canadian province of Saskatchewan. It runs from Highway 2 to Highway 165. Highway 969 is about 115 kilometres (71 mi) long.

## Route description

Highway 969 begins at Highway 2 just east of Prince Albert National Park. From there, the road heads east and then swings to the northeast. Highway 969 enters the town of Montreal Lake, which is named after the nearby Montreal Lake. Highway 926 meets Highway 969 just to the east of Montreal Lake and heads east from there. Now paralleling the lake, Highway 969 passes through Timber Bay.

The highway then heads north to the beginning of Montreal River where the original community of Molanosa was located and then continues north to its northern terminus at Highway 165. Highway 969 comes within a few hundred metres of the exact geographical centre of the province of Saskatchewan, which is near the community of Molanosa.

## History

The highway was originally part of Provincial Highway 2 that connected Prince Albert to La Ronge. Highway 2 was realigned in the 1960s, and the route was renumbered as Highway 169, but was renumbered to Highway 969 in the early 1980s as part of the establishment of the 900-series highways. Highway 969 used to follow Candle Lake Road south of Montreal Lake; however, when the road was removed from the provincial highway system, and Highway 969 was realigned to follow former Highway 930.

## Major intersections

From south to north. The entire route is in the Northern Saskatchewan Administration District and Division No. 18.

It is recognized as an institute of national importance by the *Ministero per la Università e la Ricerca Scientifica*. There are collections of entomology, malacology, osteology, ornithology, herpetology, ichthyology and mammology. There are five million specimens in total( molluscs, insects, birds and mammals and fossils). The displays are modern, with over 1000 square metres of multi-sensorial or interactive stations exhibitions and three-dimensional reconstructions. A biodiversity display includes sections on the significance of sex in the animal world; adaptations in borderline environments and ecosystems. other displays are more traditional with two ornithology halls a gallery on "Arrigoni degli Oddi" and two halls of mammals.

The museum contains the zoological collections of Conte Arrigoni degli Oddi.

## Convention

The museum is the result of a convention made between the municipality of Rome and the Sapienza University of Rome . It is one of three centres, second in the university, conserves specimens of invertebrates and vertebrates including fish, amphibians and small mammals. It is at Museo di Zoologia, Università degli Studi di Roma "La Sapienza, Viale dell'Università 32, 00100 Roma. The third, at Via Catone, contains entomological collections retained by the university.

# Urstadt Biddle Properties

**Urstadt Biddle Properties, Inc.** was a real estate investment trust based in Greenwich, Connecticut that primarily invested in shopping centers in New York, New Jersey, and Connecticut. As of October 31, 2021, the company owned interests in 79 properties comprising 5.1 million square feet of gross leasable area. The company was merged with Regency Centers Corp on August 18, 2023.

## History

The company was founded in 1969 as Hubbard Real Estate Investments, an affiliate of Merrill Lynch. The company was listed on the New York Stock Exchange in 1970.

Charles J. Urstadt joined the company as a director in 1975 and subsequently helped spin the company off from Merrill Lynch. In 1989, he became chief executive officer. The company was then known as HRE Properties.

When Urstadt took over as CEO, he narrowed the company's focus from a diverse portfolio to one specializing in neighborhood shopping centers, typically anchored by grocery stores, in the suburban New York region including Westchester County, New York and Putnam County, New York, and Fairfield County, Connecticut. The new concentration was made in order to take advantage of the area's affluent population; fewer stores in the area relative to shoppers; the company's extensive market knowledge; and more efficient management of the properties. Another strategic decision Urstadt implemented was to keep the company's debt low relative to the size of its assets.

Willing L. Biddle, a real estate executive, joined the company in 1993 as vice president of retail. He was later promoted to various positions and became president and chief operating officer of the company in 1996. In 1997, the company was renamed Urstadt Biddle Properties, Inc.

In 2013, Urstadt stepped down as chief executive officer but remained as chairman of the board of directors. Biddle became the chief executive officer and retained his title of president.

In 2002, the company acquired Ridgeway Shopping Center in Stamford, Connecticut for $89.3 million from a partnership controlled by Larry Silverstein and Howard Menaker. It was the largest open-air shopping center in Fairfield County. It comprised 331,000 square feet of retail space and 29,000 square feet of office space. Thirty-five tenants occupied the property including Bed Bath & Beyond, Staples Inc., Old Navy and a 60,000-square-foot Stop & Shop grocery store. In 2011, the company purchased the remaining stake in the property that it did not purchase in the 2002 sale for $7.4 million.

In 2005, the company acquired The Docks shopping center in Stratford, Connecticut for $50.25 million. The 30-acre site had 14 tenants including Stop & Shop and Staples. Also included on the site was a 192-slip marina.

In May 2010, the company acquired The New Milford Shopping Plaza for $22.5 million. The property was located on Route 7 in New Milford, Connecticut and included Walmart and Stop & Shop as tenants.

In 2013, the company acquired the Village Shopping Center in New Providence, New Jersey for $34.85 million. The 110,000-square-foot center was anchored by The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company with other tenants including CVS Pharmacy, Smashburger, and Investors Bank.

In 2014, the company acquired two properties in Greenwich, Connecticut for $47.4 million. One property was a 48,000-square-foot mixed-use property on East Putnam Avenue in Cos Cob, Connecticut. The second property was in Old Greenwich, Connecticut on Route 1. It included an 18,200-square-foot building with Kings Food Markets as tenant.

Also in 2014, the company purchased 4 shopping centers in New Jersey for $124.5 million. The 4 centers were the Midland Park Shopping Center in Midland Park, New Jersey (130,000 square feet); the Pompton Lakes Town Square (125,000 square feet); the Cedar Hill Shopping Center (43,000 square feet); and the Meadtown Shopping Center in Kinnelon, New Jersey (77,000 square feet).

On March 1, 2017, the company sold 60 S. Broadway, White Plains, New York for $53 million to Lennar. The 3.53-acre site included the former Westchester Pavilion. The sale was the 3rd highest priced sale in Westchester County, New York in 2017.

Charles D. Urstadt was named chairman of the company effective January 1, 2019. Urstadt was first elected to the company's board of directors in 1997 and elected vice chairman in 2017. Prior to joining the company, he was a real estate executive with Halstead Property, Brown Harris Stevens and Pearce, Urstadt, Mayer & Greer. He succeeded his father, Charles J. Urstadt, who remained on the board of directors as chairman emeritus until his death in 2020.

On May 18, 2023, Urstadt Biddle Properties and Regency Centers Corporation announced that the two companies will merge. Under the terms of the agreement, Urstadt Biddle will be acquired by Regency. The transaction was valued at approximately $1.4 billion, including the assumption of debt and preferred stock. At the time of the announcement, the transaction was expected to close in the third quarter or early in the fourth quarter of 2023.

In a news release, Willing L. Biddle, CEO of Urstadt Biddle said: “"Regency has a long, successful history of being a sector and industry leader in the ownership and operation of high-quality shopping centers around the country, with one of the best-regarded teams in the REIT industry. I have no doubt that our portfolio will be in great hands under Regency leadership, and as a future Regency shareholder I look forward to the scale and platform benefits that the combination of our two companies will provide.”

At the time of the announcement, Urstadt Biddle’s portfolio of 77 properties included extensive holdings in Connecticut including Ridgeway Shopping Center in Stamford, New Milford Plaza, Danbury Square, The Dock in Stratford, Shelton Square, Goodwives Shopping Center in Darien, High Ridge Center in Stamford and Gateway Center in Wilton. Regency CEO Lisa Palmer called the portfolio “irreplaceable assets.”

Regency Centers announced the merger was complete on August 18, 2023. Urstadt Biddle shareholders approved the transaction at a special meeting of shareholders on August 16, 2023.

# Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy

**Peptide receptor radionuclide therapy** (PRRT) is a type of radionuclide therapy, using a radiopharmaceutical that targets peptide receptors to deliver localised treatment, typically for neuroendocrine tumours (NETs).

## Mechanism

A key advantage of PRRT over other methods of radiotherapy is the ability to target delivery of therapeutic radionuclides directly to the tumour or target site. This works because some tumours have an abundance (overexpression) of peptide receptors, compared to normal tissue. A radioactive substance can be combined with a relevant peptide (or its analogue) so that it preferentially binds to the tumour. With a gamma emitter as the radionuclide, the technique can be used for imaging with a gamma camera or PET scanner to locate tumours. When paired with alpha or beta emitters, therapy can be achieved, as in PRRT.

The current generation of PRRT targets somatostatin receptors, with a range of analogue materials such as octreotide and other DOTA compounds. These are combined with indium-111, lutetium-177 or yttrium-90 for treatment. 111In is primarily used for imaging alone, however in addition to its gamma emission there are also Auger electrons emitted, which can have a therapeutic effect in high doses.

PRRT radiopharmaceuticals are constructed with three components; the radionuclide, chelator, and somatostatin analogue (peptide). The radionuclide delivers the actual therapeutic effect (or emission, such as photons, for imaging). The chelator is the essential link between the radionuclide and peptide. For 177Lu and 90Y this is typically DOTA (tetracarboxylic acid, and its variants) and DTPA (pentetic acid) for 111In. Other chelators known as NOTA (triazacyclononane triacetic acid) and HYNIC (hydrazinonicotinamide) have also been experimented with, albeit more for imaging applications. The somatostatin analogue affects biodistribution of the radionuclide, and therefore how effectively any treatment effect can be targeted. Changes affect which somatostatin receptor is most strongly targeted. For example, DOTA-lanreotide (DOTALAN) has a lower affinity for receptor 2 and a higher affinity for receptor 5 compared to DOTA-octreotide (DOTATOC).

## Applications

The body of research on the effectiveness of current PRRT is promising, but limited. Complete or partial treatment response has been seen in 20-30% of patients in trials treated with 177Lu-DOTATATE or 90Y-DOTATOC, among the most widely used PRRT drugs. When it comes to comparing these two PRRT, Y-labeled and Lu-labeled PRRTs, it appears that Y-labeled is more effective for larger tumors, while Lu-labeled is better for smaller and primary tumors. The lack of ɤ-emission with Y-labeled PPRTs is also an important difference between Lu peptides and Y peptide. In particular, with Y-labeled PRRT it becomes difficult to set up a dose of radiations specific to the patient's needs. In most cases PRRT is used for cancers of the gastroenteropancreatic and bronchial tracts, and in some cases phaeochromocytoma, paraganglioma, neuroblastoma or medullary thyroid carcinoma. Various approaches to approve effectiveness and limit side effects are being investigated, including radiosensitising drugs, fractionation regimes and new radionuclides. Alpha emitters, which have much shorter ranges in tissue (limiting the effect on nearby healthy tissue), such as bismuth-213 or actinium-225 labelled DOTATOC are of particular interest.

A comparative cohort study of 1051 neuroendocrine tumor patients undergoing 90Y-DOTATOC (n=910) or 177Lu-DOTATOC (n=141) reported no significant difference in overall survival between the groups. However, patients with high tumor accumulation and multiple lesions seemed to benefit from 90Y-DOTATOC, while patients with low tumor burden, solitary lesions and extra-hepatic disease experienced more favorable outcome on 177Lu-DOTATOC. There were significantly fewer cases of transitory hematotoxicity in the 177Lu-DOTATOC group compared with the 90Y-DOTATOC group (1.4% versus 10.1%, p=0.001).

The randomized controlled phase III Neuroendocrine Tumors Therapy (NETTER-1) trial evaluated the efficacy and safety of 177Lu-DOTATATE as compared with high-dose octreotide long-acting repeatable (LAR) in patients with advanced progressive somatostatin-receptor positive midgut neuroendocrine tumors. Patients were randomly assigned to receive either 177Lu-DOTATATE and octreotide LAR at a dose of 30 mg every four weeks for symptom control (n=116) or to only receive octreotide LAR at a dose of 60 mg every four weeks (n=113, control group). In total, 200 out of the 231 patients entered long-term follow-up. Final overall survival in the intention-to-treat population was median 48.0 months in the 177Lu-DOTATATE group versus median 36.3 months in the control group (p=0.30). In other words, there was numerical difference of 11.7 months, not reaching statistical significance. 177Lu-DOTATATE was associated with limited acute toxic effects. In neuroendocrine tumor patients with advanced well-differentiated disease and progression on somatostatin analogs, 177Lu-DOTATATE is likely to reduce the risk of disease progression and be associated with quality-of-life benefits.

## Dosimetry

Therapeutic PRRT treatments typically involve several gigabecquerels (GBq) of activity. Several radiopharmaceuticals allow simultaneous imaging and therapy, enabling precise dosimetric estimates to be made. For example, the bremsstrahlung emission from 90Y and gamma emissions from 177Lu can be detected by a gamma camera. In other cases, imaging can be performed by labelling a suitable radionuclide to the same peptide as used for therapy. Radionuclides that can be used for imaging include gallium-68, technetium-99m and fluorine-18.

Currently used peptides can result in high kidney doses, as the radiopharmaceutical is retained for relatively long periods. Renal protection is therefore used in some cases, taking the form of alternative substances that reduce the uptake of the kidneys.

## Availability

PRRT is not yet widely available, with various radiopharmaceuticals at different stages of clinical trials. The cost of small volume production of the relevant radionuclides is high. The cost of Lutathera, a commercial 177Lu-DOTATATE product, has been quoted by the manufacturer as £71,500 (€80,000 or $94,000 in July 2018) for 4 administrations of 7.4 GBq.

### United States

177Lu-DOTATATE (international nonproprietary name: lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide) was approved by the FDA in early 2018, for treatment of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs).

### Europe

Marketing authorisation for 177Lu-DOTATATE was granted by the European Medicines Agency on 26 September 2017. 90Y-DOTATOC (international nonproprietary name: yttrium (90Y) edotreotide) and 177Lu-DOTATOC are designated as orphan drugs, but have not yet received marketing authorisation.

#### United Kingdom

In guidance published in August 2018, lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide was recommended by NICE for treating unresectable or metastatic neuroendocrine tumours.

### Turkey

The first therapies in Turkey using 177Lu-DOTATATE PRRT were carried out in early 2014, for treatment of gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine tumors (GEP-NETs) at the Istanbul University-Cerrahpaşa.

### Australia

Research in Australia into the use of lutetium-177-labelled antibodies for various cancers began in the Department of Nuclear Medicine at Fremantle Hospital and Health Service (FHHS), Fremantle, Australia in the late 1990s. The first therapies in Australia using 177Lu-DOTATATE PRRT for NET began in February 2005 on a trial basis under the Therapeutic Goods Administration's (TGA) Special Access Scheme (SAS) and compassionate usage of unapproved therapeutic goods. Shortly after this, 177Lu-DOTATATE PRRT was provided to Western Australian NET patients on a routine basis under the SAS, as well as under various on-going research trials.

In Australia, most centres synthesise the lutetium-177 peptide on-site from lutetium-177 chloride and the appropriate peptide.

## Side effects

Like any form of radiotherapy, ionising radiation can harm healthy tissue as well as the intended treatment target. Radiation from lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide can cause damage when the medicine passes through tubules in the kidney. Arginine/lysine can be used to reduce renal radiation exposure during peptide receptor radionuclide therapy with lutetium (177Lu) oxodotreotide.

# Sarah Jiménez

**Sarah Jimenez Vernis** (February 3, 1927 – March 13, 2017) was a Mexican artist known for her political graphic work in the mid 20th century, especially with the Taller de Gráfica Popular, earning her membership in the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana. After her time with the Taller, her career shifted to teaching, and her work became mostly forgotten. However, there have been efforts to revive interest in it.

## Background

Jiménez Vernís was born on February 3, 1927, in Piedras Negras, Coahuila in the north of Mexico. She spent her first years growing up there, near the United States border until her family moved to Córdoba, Veracruz, where she received her primary and middle school education at the Escuela de Artes y Oficios.

Her father, José Guadalupe Jiménez, was a doctor with Mexico's railroad system and participated in the Mexican Revolution. He met her mother, Sarah Vernís, on a train during the war. He served as a medic for the Carranza army. The couple had seven children, Alfonso, Alberto, Guadalupe, Concepción, Mario and Ofelia, along with Sarah.

Jiménez Vernís began drawing while in middle school and also learned to play the piano. Her father called her “my little pot painter.”

She moved to Mexico City in 1947 to live with an aunt and a paternal grandmother. At first her father required her to study business and shorthand for three years, but then she transferred to the Escuela Nacional de Pintura, Escultura y Grabado "La Esmeralda" to study art, staying there until 1953. Her teachers included Nefero, Santos Balmori, Isidoro Ocampo, Fernando Castro Pacheco, Erasto Cortés Juárez, Agustín Lazo, Arturo Estrada Hernández and Raúl Anguiano. The last left his class to her when he went to Europe. Her classmates included Ignacio Aguirre, Luis Arenal Bastar, Alberto Beltrán, Ángel Bracho, Arturo Garcia Bustos, Leopoldo Méndez and Andrea Gómez.

Jiménez Vernís traveled extensively in Mexico as well as to Yugoslavia and Italy. She was invited to the former Soviet Union twice in 1967 and 1974 to accompany Leopoldo Mendez’s portable mural.

She lived in a small home near the Monumento a la Raza in Mexico City. She died on March 13, 2017, at the age of 90.

## Career

Although she studied sculpture during her time at La Esmeralda, her artistic career was mostly focused on engraving with some drawing and painting.

In 1954 she participated in the creation of a mural at the Escuela Belisario Dominguez, with her section dealing with the dead soldier of the Mexican Revolution. During this time her father died but she completed her work before heading to Córdoba to pay her respects.

Jiménez Vernís began exhibiting her work in 1957. She joined the Taller de Gráfica Popular (TGP) in 1963, when that organization was at its height, entering with friend Adolfo Quintero. What she liked about the TGP was the contact with workers, farmers and students that the artists had. Much of her work with the organization was related to making flyers and other announcements for political events and for unions. She left the organization four years later in 1967, shortly before the death of Leopoldo Méndez, because of internal conflicts. However, she still believes that it or something like it is still needed in Mexico to speak for poor workers.

After leaving the Taller, Jiménez Vernís began a teaching career, first at the Escuela de Iniciación Artística Núm 1 run by INBA and then at the Casa del Lago in Chapultepec Park, from which she retired in 1989.

Her work has been shown in both Mexico and abroad with major exhibitions at the Biennial of Liubliana, Yugoslavia in 1957, the Casa de las Américas in Havana in 1960, the Biennial of Chile in 1965, the Second Triennial in Contemporary Dry Point in Pío de Capri, Italy in 1972 and a collective tribute to Leopoldo Méndez.

She received grants for her work from the Instituto Nacional de Bellas Artes for four years.

The artist’s work can be found in public and private collections in both Mexico and abroad, especially in the United States and Europe. She sold most of her works in Texas to raise money for the medical bills of one of her sisters. For this reason a number of important pieces, are in this state, for example her famous portrait of Emiliano Zapata, which is at the Marion Koogler McNay Museum in San Antonio. The National Museum of Mexican Art also holds work of hers. The Museo Nacional de la Estampa in Mexico City holds a series of works she did in the 1960s in Havana on the Cuban Revolution.

Although she was admitted to the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana, along with various other artists of the Taller de Gráfica Popular, her work became forgotten in the latter 20th century. There have been efforts to revive interest in it. In 2008, her work was featured at the Museo Mural Diego Rivera to help promote women artists of Frida Kahlo’s generation. In 2014, the Salón de la Plástica Mexicana held a retrospective of her work of over fifty works, which was then sent to tour in her native state of Coahuila.

## Artistry

Jiménez Vernís has mostly specialized in graphic works, as part of her political activity. In her youth, her work was very confrontational.

She never belonged to a political party but her graphic work reflects the ideals of the left. Her work focuses on social, political and economic issues especially those related to farmers and workers. She traveled Mexico extensively to capture images related to the daily life of the country.

Jiménez Vernís believed that the work of organizations like the Taller de Gráfica Popular is necessary, but says most artists are no longer interested in social and political work.
