Rivera was husband of artist [[Frida Kahlo]] and was an associate of [[Leon Trotsky]] during Trotsky's last days in Mexico (In 1929, Rivera was expelled from the Mexican Communist Party). Still a [[socialist]], in 1933 he attempted to insert a portrait of [[Lenin]] into a mural commissioned by [[Nelson Rockefeller]], called "Man at the Crossroads". Later, Rockefeller ordered it to be painted over, due to some pro-[[socialist]] imagery in the work. <ref>[http://www.diego-rivera.org/rockefellercontroversy.html Rockefeller Controversy.]</ref> A duplicate original mural is now in [[Mexico City]]'s [[The Fine Arts Palace]] (although at a smaller scale), "Man, Controller of the Universe", 1934. .<ref>[http://gomexico.about.com/od/sights/ss/df_walking_9.htm Mexico City [[Museum]] of Fine Arts]</ref>
