Latin American artists who produced works for Palestine

The Latin American artistic movement has historically been more focused on issues of regional identity, internal social struggles, indigenism, and criticism of European colonialism on the continent.

However, some Latin American artists have more generally addressed the issue of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict from a perspective of anti-imperialist resistance and support for the causes of self-determination of oppressed peoples:

- The Mexican muralist Diego Rivera included some representations of the Palestinian struggle in his murals with revolutionary themes.

- Cuban artist Almendra Albán has created paintings inspired by the Palestinian resistance against the Israeli occupation.

- Chilean Alejandro Gallegos Morrison painted murals with images of the Palestinian intifada in 1980.

- Some Latin American graffiti artists have captured Palestinian symbols and criticism of Israel in their street interventions.
