Diego Rivera, considerado um dos maiores pintores mexicanos, descrevia a pintura de cavalete como uma arte burguesa, já que a maioria das telas faziam parte de coleções particulares e não eram apreciadas pelo público. Por isso, acreditava que o mural era a única maneira de redimir artisticamente o povo mexicano, que após séculos de opressão estrangeira e exploração por parte das oligarquias nacionais, esquecera a grandeza da civilização pré-colombiana. Seus grandes murais buscavam retratar a história política e social do México, mostrando o cotidiano da população, seus heróis, sua cultura, as lutas contra as injustiças, as inspirações e aspirações. Diego Rivera foi casado com a artista Frida Kahlo, tendo sido seu único marido.

Encyclopedic overview

Diego María de la Concepción Juan Nepomuceno Estanislao de la Rivera y Barrientos Acosta y Rodríguez ( Spanish pronunciation: [ˈdjeɣo riˈβeɾa]; December 8, 1886 – November 24, 1957) was a Mexican painter. His large frescoes helped establish the mural movement in Mexican and international art.

Between 1922 and 1953, Rivera painted murals in, among other places, Mexico City, Chapingo, and Cuernavaca in Mexico, and San Francisco, Detroit, and New York City in the United States. In 1931, a retrospective exhibition of his works was held at the Museum of Modern Art in Manhattan, shortly before Rivera's commencement of his 27-mural series known as Detroit Industry Murals the next year.
