Conclusion

Content: I’m jumping well ahead of myself, however. Detroit Industry, South Wall (1932-1933)
Diego Rivera (1886–1957) was a Mexican painter known for his murals and social commentary within them. At 21, Rivera studied art in Europe, having been sponsored by the governor of Veracruz to do so. He was influenced by cubism and similar modern art movements of the day. In 1921, at the age of 35, he returned to Mexico. It’s at this time that he began to create large murals. His first was sponsored by the Mexican government and created at the National Preparatory School in Mexico City, Mexico. The Arsenal (1928)
Rivera’s work was vibrant and influenced more and more by his home country. He tackled social subjects within Mexico, like the 1910 Revolution, left-wing political beliefs, and anti-religion stance. His work was largely illustrative, telling stories within each space of his frescos in a bold and detailed fashion that often ruffled feathers in society and still remain controversial today.
