"The Fourth Way" by Francisco Muñoz Tejeida
Francisco Muñoz Tejeida reaffirms his position as a prominent figure in modern Mexican art with his work "The Fourth Way," a mixed media piece on canvas that encapsulates the essence of his artistic exploration and commitment to culture. Created in 2024, this 69.0 x 34.0 cm piece pays homage to the fusion of traditions and the search for a cultural identity that transcends the barriers of time.
The title, "The Fourth Way," suggests an introspective journey that goes beyond the physical to delve into the dimensions of perception and experience. This concept is manifested in the work through expressive abstraction, inviting the viewer to explore their own interpretive path. The piece is an explosion of intense colors and fluid brushstrokes that create a captivating visual dynamic, challenging the viewer's inertia and transporting them to a space of euphoria and joy.
Muñoz Tejeida achieves a balance between geometric forms and fluidity, creating original structures that intertwine with palpable textures. The canvas becomes a field of energy, where each figure and element symbolizes a connection to pre-Columbian cultures, resonating with folklore rich in symbolism and meaning. The sensations that emanate from the work are intense and varied, ranging from contemplative serenity to the euphoria radiating from its vibrant colors.
The artist's ability to communicate his reality through textures is remarkable. Each brushstroke seems to tell a story, reflecting the autonomy of his characters, which, although abstract, possess an undeniable presence. This dialogue between the viewer and the artwork becomes a "fourth way," a space of introspection where personal experience intertwines with cultural heritage and modernity.
In "The Fourth Way," Francisco Muñoz Tejeida not only demonstrates his technical mastery but also invites reflection on identity, history, and the role of art as a vehicle for transformation and cultural connection. It is a work that is not only observed but felt and lived, reaffirming his place as a key figure in the landscape of contemporary Mexican art.

Collector’s Guide
Francisco Muñoz Tejeida is an artist born in Mexico City, whose education at the National School of Plastic Arts (ENAP) of UNAM, formerly known as the Academy of San Carlos, laid the foundation for his extensive career as a painter and printmaker. His trajectory is marked by a deep dedication to graphic artistic production at the Taller de Gráfica Popular (TGP), where he worked for many years and developed a unique and distinctive style.
Influences and Style
Muñoz Tejeida is a worthy representative of modern Mexican art, characterized by a vibrant and textured style that integrates influences from pre-Hispanic cultures. His work is filled with folkloric symbolism, following the legacy of great Mexican artists. The influence of masters such as Rufino Tamayo and Rodolfo Nieto, as well as colorists like Henri Matisse and draftsmen like Pablo Picasso and Egon Schiele, is evident in his work, creating a language that, while primitive, is full of indigenous expression and a deep connection to his cultural roots.
Commitment and Experimentation
From the beginning, Muñoz Tejeida has shown an unwavering commitment to the modern vision of art, striving to develop an artistic expression that reflects the cultural richness of Mexico. His painting, printmaking, and sculpture aim to capture the smells, flavors, textures, lines, shapes, and colors of an ancestral culture that refuses to disappear. This commitment is manifested in his experimental work, which combines abstract and expressionist elements without adhering to homogeneous styles, always maintaining a unique and personal identity.
Exhibitions and Recognitions
Throughout his career, Francisco Muñoz Tejeida has participated in numerous group and solo exhibitions in the United States, Europe, Australia, Central America, and especially Mexico, gaining recognition for his ability to create universal images with the color and texture of a culturally rich homeland. His work can attract, impress, and unsettle diverse audiences, standing out for its expressive strength and its ability to generate significant cultural impact.
Technique and Creative Process
Muñoz Tejeida's work is distinguished by his technical experimentation, especially in the field of printmaking, a discipline he learned at the TGP under the guidance of masters such as José Álvarez Amaya, Alfredo Méreles, and Luis Garzón. His creative process is monolithic and totemic, seeking balance and constant vibration in his compositions, whether on canvases or plates. The choice of colors and textures, as well as the organization of themes in series, reflects a deep understanding of artistic language and a controlled emotional connection that brings life and passion to his work.
