Muralist Movement

The Muralist Movement, primarily associated with Mexican artists in the early 20th century, aimed to create large-scale murals that conveyed social and political messages accessible to the public. These murals often depicted historical events, cultural identity, and social struggles, serving as a form of public art to inspire awareness and unity. Artists like Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros believed murals could educate and unify communities, transforming blank walls into powerful visual stories that celebrated national identity and addressed social issues.
