The Murals of Mexico

The Murals of Mexico refer to a vibrant artistic movement that emerged in the early 20th century, aimed at promoting social and political messages through large-scale wall paintings. Notable artists like Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros used murals to depict Mexican history, culture, and struggles, emphasizing themes of revolution, class struggle, and identity. These works transformed public spaces, making art accessible to everyone and encouraging civic engagement. Today, they are celebrated as significant contributions to both Mexican art and global cultural heritage.
