Diego Rivera: Frescoes

Ongoing

In the 1920s and 1930s, a vogue for Mexican art in the United States drew prominent Mexican painters northward. In this installation are two of five portable murals that Diego Rivera created in New York for display in an exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in 1931.
