Diego Rivera på Living Museum of Muralism
Beskrivelse
Vil du vide mere om Diego Riveras arbejde? SEP, i dag kaldet Living Museum of Muralism, er et mødested med mere end 280 vægmalerier af de bedste kunstnere i Mexico. Vi mødes på første sal i museet. Derfra vil vi rundt i bygningens tre niveauer: det første dedikeret til handel og traditioner, det andet til skjolde, og det tredje til korridos-digtene og den russiske og mexicanske revolution. I hver af dem vil vi analysere Riveras billedlige udvikling gennem årene, såvel som tidens tvangstanker og frygt. Derefter vil vi besøge udvidelsen af bygningen, hvor de gigantiske vægmalerier af David Siqueiros ligger. Disse kunne klassificeres som blandt de største vægmalerier, i størrelse og betydning, i Mexico City. Til sidst vil vi rundt i lokalerne, der er dedikeret til oprindelige vægmalerier, keramik, klostret og reproduktioner af flere vigtige værker i det moderne Mexico.

If we could give this tour 6 stars we would. Our guide, Jose, is a deep dive in Diego Rivera’s murals, history and culture. This 17th century neoclassical convent made the tour all the richer. We all learned so much from him. It is obvious he loves this subject and sharing with others. Don’t hesitate to book this highlight tour and ask for Jose!!!
5 spectacular .jose great guide we visited soumaya museum too. Detailed explanations and very objective observations stimulating, was an extremely pleasant and organized tour
Jose is very prepared, kind, welcoming, speaks good Italian and you can feel all his great and true passion
Diego Rivera's Murals cover the first floor of the Living Museum of Murals. Entrance is FREE. Just requires a visitor log in. On the second floor stairway is an amazing exhibit of Siqueiros. The buildings architecture is amazing and was the former headquarters fir the Ministry of Public Education.
You can get a free tour in English at this museum at noon. There is no charge for entry and the guides work for the museum. It’s a fabulous collection of murals and the guides are excellent. Great activity to do on a Monday in CDMX.
Cultured thoughtful teacher guide with excellent English seemed excited to impart knowledge of Mexico’s culture and history and politics in a thoughtful way that gets his clients to think and engage and understand more for doing so. He brought everything alive on the mural tour and the Soumaya museum a couple of days ago and has a passion for art and culture . No surprise to learn he’s a published poet and composes and aspires to write a novel. If you get him as your guide you will have a wonderful window into the soul, psyche and history of Mexico
