Frida Kahlo (1907-1954)<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"Frida

Probably one of the best known Mexican artists<\/strong> worldwide. Her life, marked by health problems and her marriage to Diego Rivera, is the protagonist of her works, which reflect a whole world of experiences, emotions and ideas. Her work is marked<\/strong> by the symbolism of color, which, depending on the message she wished to convey, she used with great skill, drawing the viewer into Frida’s inner world.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Rufino Tamayo (1889-1991)<\/span><\/h2>\n

An outstanding<\/strong> figure in Mexican painting (probably its greatest representative), of international fame, he was part of the “group of the 3” (Rivera, Siqueiros and Orozco). He was a great muralist whose work gradually moved away from realism to give way to the richness of the expression of his inner world.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Diego Rivera (1886-1957)<\/span><\/h2>\n

He is known worldwide<\/strong> for his realist and cubist paintings and for his murals in Mexico and the United States. His work has influenced countless artists and his life, like that of his wife, Frida Kahlo, continues to arouse great curiosity and interest.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

David Alfaro Siqueiros (1896-1974)<\/span><\/h2>\n

\"David

He is one of the most famous Mexican muralists<\/strong>. He stood out for being the most daring in terms of aesthetics and technique in his works, investigating the use of new materials. Artists such as Jackson Pollock passed through his experimental art studio in New York.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

\"Work

Gerardo Murillo, better known as Dr. Atl (atl means water in Nahuatl), was a teacher of Rivera<\/strong>, Tamayo and Siqueiros at the San Carlos Academy (Mexico). Great landscape painter in love with volcanoes, trees and mountains.<\/span><\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
