Mexican muralism
Mexican Muralism is an artistic movement that began in the 1920s, emphasizing large-scale murals painted on public walls. Artists like Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros aimed to depict Mexico's history, culture, and social issues, often highlighting the struggles of the working class and indigenous peoples. The movement sought to make art accessible to everyone and to inspire social change through powerful imagery. Muralism became a vital expression of national identity and political messaging, reflecting Mexico's revolutionary spirit and its quest for justice and equality.
