Grupo de los Cuatro

The "Grupo de los Cuatro" refers to four influential Spanish-speaking artists (Carlos Mérida, David Siqueiros, José Clemente Orozco, and Diego Rivera) active in the early 20th century. They are known for their contributions to modern art and Mexican muralism, combining art with social and political messages. Their work often depicted national history, worker struggles, and societal issues, helping shape Mexican cultural identity. Collectively, they played a vital role in bringing art out of museums and into public spaces, making powerful visual statements accessible to a broad audience.
