Puntas Nevadas: The Majesty of Nature in Francisco Muñoz Tejeida's Art
A Tribute to Mexican Roots
Francisco Muñoz Tejeida has established himself as a pillar of modern Mexican art, celebrated for his vibrant style, layered textures, and colors that convey the depth of his cultural heritage. Deeply inspired by pre-Hispanic traditions and the unique identity of Mexico, his work embraces a fusion of abstract and expressionist elements, while maintaining a distinct voice. Each piece by Muñoz Tejeida reflects a modern Mexico—a country reinventing itself yet firmly rooted in its ancestral past. In “Puntas Nevadas," the artist invites us into a visual portrayal of nature's grandeur, where the snowy peaks mirror the resilience and richness of the landscape.
Visualizing Balance in Puntas Nevadas
Created in 2018, “Puntas Nevadas" measures 53x57 cm and employs a mixed-media technique to build a dynamic interplay between form, texture, and symbolism. The piece is anchored by warm browns, blacks, and whites, infusing it with the vitality of the Mexican terrain. Its expressive composition balances geometric and organic forms, portraying mountain peaks with fluid strokes and textured layers that evoke the rugged majesty of Mexico's natural beauty. Here, balance serves as a recurring theme—between past and present, stability and movement, symbolizing an eternal connection to Mexico's landscapes.
Muñoz Tejeida's Artistic Path and Influences
Muñoz Tejeida's style draws from both cubism, as seen in Picasso's fragmented forms and perspectives, and surrealist influences from Joan Miró and Wilfredo Lam, infusing his work with a dreamlike, symbolic quality. His extensive career includes exhibitions across Mexico, the United States, Europe, Australia, and Central America. His formative years at the UNAM's National School of Visual Arts and training at the Taller de Gráfica Popular shaped his profound commitment to socially engaged art. Under the influence of José Guadalupe Posada's legacy, Muñoz Tejeida honed his craft in printmaking and became a vital contributor to Mexican art.
An Ode to Mexican Spirit and Landscape
“Puntas Nevadas" epitomizes Muñoz Tejeida's ability to communicate the vastness of Mexico's natural and cultural landscapes. The painting's expressive textures and organic balance reveal an appreciation for the resilience found in nature. Through each layered detail, the artist bridges his rich heritage and personal vision, encapsulating Mexico's essence in both substance and spirit.

Presentation
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.
