Carlos Mérida
Carlos Mérida is a Guatemalan artist who was one of the first to combine modern European painting with Latin American themes, especially those related to Guatemala and Mexico. He is part of the Mexican mural painting movement on the subject but less stylistic, preferring non-figurative geometry and, later, narrative and hieroglyphic styles. Mérida is best known for its murals and fabrics, the latter including items such as glass and ceramic mosaic on major constructions from the 1950s and 1960s. One of his major works, large 4000 square meters of the Benito Juarez residence, were completely destroyed after the Mexico earthquake in 1985, but a monument to it still exists in another complex south of the city.
