10 o'clock Socialist


José Clemente Orozco, Gods of the Modern World 1932

PBS, 10pm tonight, American Masters goes south for a show on José Clemente Orozco. Did you know the extent of his murals? He painted from New Hampshire down to Guadalajara; two great ones are at the New School University in New York and The House of Tiles in Mexico City. The one above is at Dartmouth, where there is a cycle of 24 works, The Epic of American Civilization.
