Painting

José Clemente Orozco, alongside Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros, led the Mexican mural movement that established a powerful new visual vocabulary for post-Civil War Mexico and inspired socially-conscious artists north of the border and across the world. Of these three artists – Los Tres Grandes – whose monumental compositions foregrounded the indigenous warrior and the common laborer, Orozco's approach was the most complex, a hard and unsparing eye cast on the baseness and brutality of all sides of the revolution.
