Conductores de Venezuela, Public mural at Central University of Venezuela, Caracas, Venezuela
The Conductores de Venezuela mural spans 165 meters in length and 11 meters in height, composed of 45,000 stoneware tiles measuring 20 centimeters each.
Venezuelan cartoonist Pedro León Zapata created this ceramic mural between 1998 and 1999, following his studies under Mexican artist Diego Rivera.
The mural depicts numerous historical Venezuelan figures, including Simón Bolívar and Teresa de la Parra, operating various types of vehicles.
The artwork stands on the exterior wall of the Covered Gymnasium, facing the Francisco Fajardo freeway, marking the northeast boundary of the university campus.
Each of the 45,000 tiles was manufactured at the Pienme plant by ceramist Ricardo Ceruzzi using single-firing furnaces for the installation.
