Word arrives from ARTnews of the death of Geles Cabrera, at 100, recognized as Mexico's first professional female sculptor. Her passing marks the close of a career that opened a discipline to women where none had formally practiced it before, a distinction collectors and institutions who track sculpture's history will note.

With reporting from ARTnews.
