Ana Ugalde

Ana Ugalde (born 1925) is a Mexican painter.

Born in San Juan del Río, Querétaro, Ugalde studied painting under Prometeo Barragán and José Ramos Castillo. Her first exhibition was the Galería del Grupo Preparatoriano 20-24 show of 1958; she had already painted murals for the Museo Regional de San Diego in Acapulco, in 1951. In 1959 she was among the artists who produced work for the temple museum annex of the Castillo de Chapultepec; others included Martha Rojas, Enrique Carreón, and Antonio López Sáenz. In 1963 she was among those hired to decorate the pre-Hispanic rooms of the Museum of the City of Mexico, alongside Martha Rojas, Héctor Trillo, and her former teacher Barragán. In 1964 she was one of the artists who assembled and decorated the Oaxaca Room of the National Museum of Anthropology. Ugalde has also worked as an art restorer, and offers classes in restoration and painting in addition to continuing her easel work.[1]
