What You Will Do
If you want to talk about the artistic dynamics of modern Mexico, the possible end of muralism, and the student revolts of 1968, you must visit this world heritage site: UNAM.
We will meet at the rector's building, right in front of the UNESCO commemorative plaque. From there we will enter the campus to analyze the murals of Siqueiros, O'Gorman, Chávez Morado and Eppens. Along the way we will also talk about the genesis of education in the country, the student revolts, and the value of the university in today's Mexico.
Finally we will head to the Olympic University Stadium to see the mural "The university, the family and sports in Mexico" by Diego Rivera.
