| The studio of Mexican painter Diego Rivera is now maintained as an art museum in Mexico City. The artist’s paintings, murals, and large-scale frescos often depicted Mexico’s history and social issues. Rivera believed that art should serve and be accessible to the working people, and he painted many of his works on prominent public buildings. Rivera’s influences include pre-Columbian artifacts, the cubist movement of Europe, and the work of Mexican painter Frida Kahlo, Rivera‘s wife. | ||||||
