Calaveras: Skulls, Skeletons, Devils and Demons in Mexican Folk Art
Wednesday November 11, 2009 from 9:00am - 6:00pm
Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities
6901 Wadsworth Blvd
Arvada, Colorado 80003 Get Directions
Calavera is the Spanish word for skull. By extension it is applied as well to skeletons and more particularly to the satirical skeletons that are a distinct motif in a body of Mexican folk art associated mainly with the observances of El Dis de los Muertos. A private collector in Denver has generously lent more than 75 Day of the Dead themed objects or sets of objects for exhibition. The exhibition is presented in partnership with the Mexican Cultural Center and the Consulate General of Mexico. This exhibit will be shown in the Upper Gallery of the Arvada Center. The exhibit will be shown in the Main Gallery of the Arvada Center.
