GUIDED TOUR OF THE CALAVERA MEXICANA EXHIBITION IN COYOACÁN
4 de December de 2024

Por Perla Arroyo

This video is a record of the guided tours carried out on November 7 and 14, 2024 at the Jesús Reyes Heroles Culture House, Coyoacán, during the Mexican Skull exhibition. Symbol of life, by the Mexican artist Perla Arroyo, where 7 works and 3 engravings by the artist were presented.

 

Mexican Skull. A symbol of life, it reinterprets the skull not only as an emblem of death, but also as a symbol of life, identity and cultural transformation in Mexico. This sculptural series, made of bronze, presents iconic figures such as Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz and the emblematic duo of Diego and Frida, inspired by popular tradition and the legacy of José Guadalupe Posada. Arroyo integrates pre-Hispanic and contemporary elements in a minimalist aesthetic that highlights the duality of life-death and the connection with the sacred, fundamental concepts in the Nahuatl worldview.
