José Clemente Orozco was a renowned Mexican artist celebrated for his powerful and socially conscious murals. Born in Zapotlán el Grande in 1883, Orozco's work played a pivotal role in the Mexican Mural Renaissance alongside Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, and others. Orozco's art often delved into themes of social injustice, political commentary, and the human condition. His distinctive style, characterized by bold lines, dramatic chiaroscuro, and a sense of raw emotion, made him a leading figure in Mexican art.
