While the nation of Mexico was formally
established in 1821,
Mexican culture remains a mosaic of traditions
founded deep in
antiquity and later merged with Spanish culture.
Las Artes de
Mexico examines over three millennia of
tradition and change
through more than 100 examples of pottery,
painting, folk art, and
prints centered on themes of ceremony and
celebration, ritual
warfare, veneration of the dead, feast days and
religion, and social
commentary related to development of the modern
Mexican state.
