Poliforum Siqueiros

Benito Juárez

The history of Poliforum Siqueiros has been and remains turbulent, but it still remains one of the city's most beloved cultural treasures. The cultural space was first opened in 1971 and features the largest mural of the world, “The March of Humanity” painted by Mexican muralist and political dissenter David Siqueiros. The interior mural covers more than 93,646 square feet and depicts the struggle of humanity across four sections, narrated by the late artist himself as a rotating platform carries visitors on a journey through the mural. The space also features galleries and a theater. The facade, a dodecahedron by design, brings Siqueiros’ art to the outside world. Over the years, numerous groups have worked to restore the building, now officially declared as part of the city’s cultural heritage. While it is officially closed to visitors, you can still see the mural itself just from the outside.
