Gulu lake lidakula ndipo adalamulidwa kuti ajambule nyumba yatsopano ku Plaza Art Center. Chithunzichi chidayambitsanso kukwiya ndipo adalamulidwa kuti afufutidwe pang'ono pang'ono kenako kwathunthu. Pomwe amakhala ku California, Siqueiros anali atadziwika kale kuti anali ndi kalembedwe kake.
Siqueiros adapitilizabe ntchito yake nthawi zonse chifukwa cha zachiwawa, umunthu wake womwe umayambitsa zoyipa komanso mikangano ndi akuluakulu aboma. Munali cha m'ma 1940 pomwe - zoyambirira zosangalatsa zaku Mexico zosonkhanitsa zidayamba - zomwe zidapangitsa kuti zaluso zisachitike mdziko lathu. Otsatira atsopanowa anali ndi malingaliro okondwerera dziko lawo ndipo anali mbali yamabizinesi apadera aku Mexico omwe amapeza mfundo zosadziwika pambuyo pakusintha. Chimodzi mwazinthuzi chinali kukonda kukongola kwauzimu komwe sikufuna kugula kwaukadaulo ndalama zokhazikika, koma kumangotolera zosankha mosamala ndi malingaliro omwe amasandulika kukhala chuma chogawana ndi ena. Licio Lagos Terán ndi chitsanzo chomwe zimakhalira limodzi, pomwe chifuniro cha dziko komanso anthu onse amakhala limodzi ndi chidwi chomwecho, wochita bizinesi wamayiko osanyalanyaza ntchito zomveka za anthu ake ndi ojambula kuchokera zosayembekezereka zimaphatikizapo chisokonezo.
Chithunzicho chakhala chikuyenda limodzi ndi abwanawo mpaka pano, potengera ntchito yakusonkhanitsa anthu obwera m'tsogolo, munthuyo wapeza zifukwa zomveka zophatikizira zaluso, mwa zina kudzipereka ndi malingaliro omwe amakhala ngati chikhulupiriro kwa zosatheka, popeza luso ladzaza kwambiri ndipo mosiyanasiyana limasakanikirana ndi zauzimu ndi zoyipa, zoyera ndi zopotozedwa, zopangira ndi zachilengedwe. Koma kuti mudziwe zomwe zimapangitsa munthu kupeza ntchito, ndikofunikira kuwunikanso ntchito yake.
Mwa udindo tiyenera kudzifunsa, zikadakhala zotani kwa zaluso zaku Mexico ndi olemba ake, popanda Licio Lagos, popanda Alvaro Carrillo Gil, popanda Marte R.

Osonkhanitsa a theka loyambirira la zaka anali kuchita zokomera dziko lawo pomwe ubale ndi wojambulayo unali pachiwopsezo, osati phindu lachuma; kulumikizana tsiku ndi tsiku ulusi wachikondi womwe umagwirizanitsa ntchito yopanga ndi yosonkhanitsa zomwe zidapangidwa. Licio Lagos Terán adapezeka masana ena mu 1952 ku Misrachi Gallery yokhala ndi chojambula cha Caminantes, chojambulidwa ndi David Alfaro Siqueiros chaka chomwecho. Mosakayikira, pokonda nkhaniyi, pomwe ziwerengero ziwiri zovekedwa zimayenda popanda cholinga, ntchitoyi ikuwonetsa zochitika pakati pa Lagos ndi Siqueiros. Onse awiri adachoka kumadera akomweko ndipo adakumana ndi zosatsimikizika - monga zomwe zimachitikira munthu aliyense wapaulendo-, chithunzicho chimafotokoza seweroli pakati pa chiyambi ndi ulendo, ndikubwezeretsanso chiyembekezo cha omwe asamukira, omwe, atasiya zosayembekezereka, ayamba kudabwa.
Licio Lagos Terán adabadwira ku Cosamaloapan Veracruz mu 1902, Siqueiros, ku Chihuahua, onse adachita zochitika pakubadwa kwa Republic. Woyamba adalimbikitsidwa ndi moyo polandidwa kwa Port of Veracruz yochitidwa ndi anthu aku North America pa Epulo 21, 1914, pomwe wachiwiri anali pakati pa mwano wa Juarista ndi agogo ake aamuna a Antonio Alfaro, "Madera Asanu ndi awiri" omwe adamenya nawo nkhondo a Juárez motsutsana ndi kuwukira kwachilendo. Onse awiri adapita ku likulu la dzikolo kukapitiliza maphunziro awo: Licio Lagos ku Faculty of Law, Siqueiros ku National School of Fine Arts.
Pomwe Licio Lagos anali kuphunzira ngati loya, Siqueiros anali kaputeni wosintha. Mu 1925, Licio adatchulidwanso ndipo Siqueiros adalembetsa ngati muralist. Mu 1929, a Lagos adakhazikitsa kampani yawo yopangira zamalamulo kumakampani, patatha zaka zingapo kukhala Purezidenti wa Confederation of Industrial Chambers.

Woyenera komanso wodabwitsa, waluso komanso wochenjera, banga lomwe limapanga Caminantes limafotokoza mkhalidwe wowopsa: malo osalekeza osamukira kuderali kumizinda. Siqueiros nthawi zonse amaganiza zakufunika kofotokozera zizindikiritso zomveka bwino m'maphunziro omwe adapanga pazakujambula kwake, zikuwonekeratu kuti kujambulaku kumuuza zambiri pazomwe amafuna.
Licio Lagos adapeza chithunzi chachiwiri ndi chachitatu kuchokera kwa Siqueiros mwiniwake, anali Volcán (1955) ndi Bahía de Acapulco, (Puerto Marqués 1957). Onsewa adayikidwa munthawi yomwe Lagos adalimbikira kuti apeze malo osangalatsa kwambiri amalo aku Mexico omwe adziwa mpaka pano. Zimaganiziridwa kuti ntchito yotsatira inali Sonrisa Jarocha, wopentedwa bwino ndi wojambulayo, poyesera kuti agwire ntchito imodzi mwanzeru ndi kuyamikira magazi a Veracruz, makamaka chifukwa cha zomwe adalemba m'makumbukiro ake Amanditcha Coronelazo ( 1977), pomwe amafotokoza zomwe zimachitika chifukwa chokhala wachinyamata pa doko komanso kukhala kwake ndi "akazi okongola a Jarocha."
Mu 1959, Siqueiros adagwirizana ndi kunyanyala komwe ogwira ntchito njanji ku Mexico adachita ndikumangidwa chifukwa chaziphuphu, ku Black Palace ku Lecumberri, pakati pa 1960 ndi 1964. Ataikidwa m'ndende, mavuto azachuma adafika kubanja ndi gulu la othandizira muralists. Mosazengereza anapita kwa anzake; m'modzi mwa iwo anali Licio Lagos, yemwe adamupatsa dzanja lake kuti apeze zojambula zina zinayi zoyambirira. Mwa awa El beso (1960), momwe mayi amapatsira mwana wake chilakolako cha moyo. Funso lofunsidwa maulendo zana ndiloti kuyamika kotereku kungakule bwanji pakati pa chikominisi chokhwima monga Siqueiros ndi loya wolemba ngati Licio Lagos; yankho likupezeka pachithunzichi Kugawidwa kwa zoseweretsa zomwe zidagwiritsidwa ntchito kwa ana osauka a Mezquital (1961), chithunzi chowona cha chiphunzitso cha filosofi yokhudzana ndi umunthu. Ntchitoyi imalongosola gulu losakhazikika komanso lokhumudwa, lokhala ndi zikhumbo, pamaso pa azimayi ovala ubweya, omwe pamapazi awo amakhala ndi kabati kakang'ono koseweretsa zoseweretsa. Pakati pa chinyengo ndi chifundo chabodza, Siqueiros akuwonetsa ndi mikwingwirima kalabu yaying'ono ya ochita bwino yomwe imalamulira popereka zomwe zatsala kwa osauka, zomwe Licio Lagos adagwirizana ndi muralist, pomvetsetsa kuti kufunikira sikutanthauza iyenera kugwiritsidwa ntchito mwachabechabe, kapena ndi chikumbumtima chodzibisa ngati mphatso. Licio Lagos adayika zojambulazo pamodzi ndi omwe adakonzanso kukongola kwawo mwamtendere kunyumba kwake, komwe kumawulula makoma olumikizidwa ndi chidwi cha omanga ake.
Zithunzi zitatu zatsiriza kusonkhanitsa. Loyamba ndilo gawo la zomangamanga la Muerte al Invasor, lojambulidwa ndi Siqueiros ku Chillán, Chile, pomwe atsogoleri a Galvarino ndi Francisco Bilbao aphatikizana ndikulira kupandukira kuwukira kwaufumu ndi kugonjera kwachikhalidwe komwe Siqueiros akuwonetsa ulemu Wolemba Lagos pakupatulira: "Kwa loya Licio Lagos, ndiubwenzi watsopano wa wolemba. Madzulo a chaka chatsopano cha 1957. " Mmodzi winanso ndi Munthu womangirizidwa pamtengo womwe maphunziro amatuluka omwe adzagwire ntchito ku Poliforum.
Zoposa zaka zana pambuyo pa Siqueiros ndi Licio Lagos, bata lomwe anthu awiri osiyana adagawana mtunda wawo ndikunamizira sikumatha kutidabwitsa: kukonda zaluso, chidwi chazovuta zamunthu.
