Mexican artists Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siquieros, and José Clemente Orozco, known as Los Tres Grandes, were among the most influential muralists of the 20th century. In this free workshop, Dr. Eduardo Douglas (Department of Art and Art History, UNC-Chapel Hill) will introduce their work and present the larger impact and influence in Latin American and U.S. art and politics. Local artists Cornelio Campos and Miguel Rojas Sotelo will describe how the Mexican muralists impact the art they create here in North Carolina. Afterward, participants will go on a bus tour of Durham and Chapel Hill to view some of the Mexican-inspired murals in our area.
