This volume pays homage to the icons of Mexican painting: Diego Rivera, Jose Clemente Orozco, and David Alfaro Siqueiros. Known as the three leading Mexican muralists, these artists, along with Gunther Gerzso and Luis Nishizawa, also produced relatively small scale works in which the harsh life of the Mexican peasant and the brutality of civil war is portrayed with a directness and honesty not always seen in the murals. Mexican Masters expresses the hopes, desires, idealism, and culture of early twentieth-century Mexico through its artists.Oklahoma City Museum of Art is the author of 'Mexican Masters Rivera, Orozco, And Siqueiros, Selections from the Museo De Arte Carrillo Gil' with ISBN 9780911919035 and ISBN 0911919031.
