With his large fresco paintings, or murals, infused with cultural significance, Mexican painter Diego Rivera (1886-1957) captured the attention of the world and helped establish the Mexican and international mural movement. Rivera is considered one of Mexico's greatest artists of the twentieth century. He believed art should be seen and enjoyed by all people and his murals told powerful stories about the struggles of the poor and celebrated the history and diversity of the Mexican people. It was his visits to America throughout the 1930s and his public murals that made complex cultural subjects easy for everyone to understand that forever altered how people in the United States and the world viewed public art. Ultimately, it was his radical political views plus tumultuous romance and marriage to another ultra famous Mexican painter, Frida Kahlo, that made him a source of public intrigue that continues today.
