Danyett Tucker – Mexican Muralism and Los Tres Grandes (The Three Great Ones)

Learn how Diego Rivera, Josè Clemente Orozco, and David Siqueiros used murals as political messages in their communities by converting public spaces into vibrant history lessons and social commentary of the times. Be inspired to create figurative mobile murals reflecting today’s society and its immediate concerns. The five C’s are covered in this socially conscious endeavor. Students will be exposed to: cultures, comparisons between cultures and the artists, connections among disciplines, communication tactics, and community awareness, while creating a lasting legacy that will linger as an incentive to awaken civic responsibility in all participants and viewers during this mural residency.
