Rafael Cauduro, born on April 18, 1950, in Mexico City, was esteemed as one of the most globally recognized contemporary Mexican artists. His artistic productions spanned large-scale paintings, murals, and sculptures, some prominently displayed in venues like the Supreme Court of Justice of the Nation, the Mexico City Metro, and the Los Pinos Cultural Center.

After studying industrial design at the Universidad Iberoamericana, graduating in 1972, Cauduro immersed himself in his art following his father's passing, achieving his first exhibition at Casa del Lago in 1976. Subsequently, he successfully showcased his work at the Palace of Fine Arts Museum in 1984
