Muralist José Clemente Orozco left his mark in several places in Guadalajara. This one-handed artist believed in “art for the people” and painted his work in public places to ensure accessibility and visibility. In the government building is this historical mural in a staircase….

But Orozco’s most amazing work is visible at Cabañas Cultural Institute, sometimes called the "Sistine Chapel of the Americas." We spent quite a lot of time here just taking it all in. Inspiring.
