I need help identifying the difference between Diego Rivera and Orozco's murals. If you were to see the pictures together, how would you identify which one belongs to which artist? I need help now, test is tommorow!

Thanks for the "help". Uhhh....I know that Deigo Rivera was a communist and painted common people while Orozco painted revolution because he himself was a part of it (Rivera wasn't there during the occurance). So I DO know the difference, and I am doing a lot of research....and I'm not in college.
I'm being responsible, but side help would be nice. Geez.

All you really have to do is study as many paintings as possible by each artist and simply learn to recognize the differences in their styles. While some of Rivera's and Orozco's paintings might have had similar subject matters you can learn to tell them apart by recognizing each artist's unique style.
Every good artist has his/her own signature style that sits him or her apart from other artists. Both Van Gogh and Gauguin lived and worked and knew each other and painted their paintings during the same time and when Gauguin still lived in France many of their works were of similar subject matters. But they painted their works in styles unique to each artist.
You can learn to tell the difference between a Rivera and a Orozco by studying their different techniques, their different approach, their different style of creating.

Diego Rivera- the joy of life. Deals with simple life.
Orozco - history, conquer, struggle. Deals with history.

Riveras murals were of working class peasants mostly. I dont know Orozcos work.

I know Diego seemed to paint more murals of people working, nice social scenes.

Stop yelling!
Any kind of research we might do, you could do yourself. Google images, the artists' names, do some reading.

I am afraid I must agree with the chap ahead of me. Use your mind. If you are in college, you must have gotten there somehow. :)
