Oscar Melchor Peredo y Garcia (born 6 January 1927) is a Mexican muralist and a representative of the social realist school of mural painting in Mexico. His murals depict historical scenes from Mexican history with an emphasis on revolutionary subjects. His work is featured in public and government buildings across Mexico. He has also painted murals in the USA and Europe.

Early years

Melchor was born 6 January 1927 in Mexico City. His father Luis G. Peredo was a journalist during the 1910 Mexican Revolution and became a pioneer of Mexican cinema. In 1918 Luis directed the silent film "Santa" based on the 1903 naturalist novel by Federico Gamboa. At the age of eleven, inspired by the work of muralists Diego Rivera, José Clemente Orozco and David Alfaro Siqueiros, Melchor decided to become a painter. He studied at several major art institutes in Mexico City including the Escuela La Esmeralda and the National School of Arts. He painted his first mural in 1947 in a maternity clinic,[1] depicting the exploitation of marginalized workers in Mexico City.

In 1953, he joined the Frente Nacional de Artes Plásticas and was commissioned as a representative to assist at the IV World Youth Festival for Peace in Romania. The art critic Judith Krauss made arrangements for him to stay in Bucharest but he decided that the most important movement was in Mexico and returned home to join a research workshop funded by the National Polytechnic Institute. There he perfected his fresco technique under the guidance of José Gutierrez, a proponent of the first artistic use of acrylic paint.[2]/
