Hospicio Cabañas
See Orozco's murals inside a monumental former charitable institution, where the chapel and courtyards give the art a powerful architectural setting in central Guadalajara.
Cabañas combines two substantial experiences: a carefully organized neoclassical institution and a major work of Mexican muralism. The chapel changes how you look at painted surfaces, especially overhead. Leave room to move between the murals and the quieter courtyards, rather than reducing the building to a single famous image.
