Tasks / Hunt For Rivera



We are lucky in San Francisco to have 3/4 murals created by Diego Rivera on the West Coast. Your Mission should you choose to accept it is to locate and document each of these murals. As his Murals can be quite large perhaps a specific panel/section should be used for documentation. Proofs should include which Mural you like most and why it speaks to you. Look and analyze the meaning of the work and how its meaning could be interpreted today...
Think of this task as a treasure hunt as his murals are treasures...
1. Near the "Ocean" and in his theatre...Rivera created this mural because he was amazed at the idea of a place that would offer an education to just about anyone.
2. Chestnuts roasting by an open fire...El Fresco en el Fresco...Diego documents the building of a city
3. Capitalism Capital of the west and financial center of the bay...Represents the women CA is named after..
Bonus points should be awarded for finding the fourth mural, but should be given out only for Stern Players.
