Orozco's murals
Painter José Clemente Orozco (1883-1949) influenced American art with size, scope and themes of Mexican modernism and social progress. In the late '20s, the artist took up residence in the United States, which served as a period of growth and modernist expansion, which resulted in a volume of work including his first commissioned mural, located in Claremont California's Pamona College. More than 100 of Orozco's studies, paintings, prints and drawings will go on exhibit March 9 at the San Diego Museum of Art, the exhibit's first stop on the tour. Along with the exhibition, the museum will host several related events such as lectures, concerts and a symposium. The museum also will offer free public tours of the show in Spanish every Sunday at 2 p.m. through May 19, when the exhibition concludes.
