...never safe to leave one-armed Jose Clemente Orozco long in the presence of large undecorated wall spaces. Artist Orozco, whose jutting jaw and glittering glasses make him look not unlike an ecstatic bullfrog, is, like his friend and compatriot Diego Rivera, one of the most important mural painters in the Americas, an avid reviver of the art of true fresco.

Vibrant, intensely serious Artist Orozco is Mexican, of lineage from the 15th Century Conquistador es. One-armed, squarejawed, thickset, with glittering spectacles he looks not unlike an ecstatic bullfrog. In 1922, after a painful apprenticeship tinting postcards in California and drawing scathing cartoons in Mexico, he joined the famed Syndicate of Revolutionary Artists organized by Minister of Education Jose Vasconcelos.* Led by spectacular, pistol-carrying Diego Rivera they worked for a flat sum of eight pesos...
