DIEGO RIVERA IN THE
PALACE OF FINE ARTS
(English Version)
Instructional Unit in Spanish or English.
Running Time: 16 min.
Advanced Level
Year: 2004.

This is the famous mural that was intended for Rockefeller
Center in New York City. Because of the allusions to
communism, the mural was destroyed before it was
finished. Later, Rivera decided to reproduce the same
mural at the Palace of Fine Arts in Mexico City where it
may be seen today. It shows man in control of the
Universe and Rivera's view of the world in the 1930's. This
is one of Rivera's most beautiful as well as controversial
works. Also at the Palace of Fine Arts we can admire four
other panels on display there: México Folklórico y
Turística, La Dictadura, Danza de Huichilobos and Agustín
Lorenzo.
