During my stay in California, I want to listen to a concert in San Francisco, I want to see the exhibition of the Museum of Modern Art or the Asian Art Museum, this time is no exception, but after watching the repertoire of David Symphony Hall for half a day, nothing excites me, and then look at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art has the works of the Mexican painting master Diego Rivera, of course, it is part of the exhibition, Rivera is powerful is the mural, is full of revolutionary spirit and Mexican native art combination of strange, I once saw the murals of Rivera and Sigueros in Mexico City, which seemed to be the hall of the Ministry of Education, which was very exciting, Rivera achieved artistic ideals in Mexico and participated in the modern art movement in Paris, and was a very personal artist.

The Mexican mural movement (Spanish: Muralismo mexicano) was a mural art that began to be popularized in the 1920s. In order to promote the Mexican people to restore order from the flames of the Mexican Revolution, most of these works have socio-educational and political overtones. Dominating this art are the "Three Masters of the Mural Paintings" - Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiroz. Its movement lasted about half a century, spanning the 1920s to the 1970s. During this period, the artist painted nationalist, social, and political murals on public buildings in Mexico, a trend that continues to this day, not only locally but also in parts of the United States. Mexican mural art is also an inspiration for American Chicano culture.
