Oaxaca has an incredible amount of art and artists all working on engravings, etchings, oils, and many other mediums. Join me visiting some of these galleries & workshops and view the process of large print making, whether for murals, for posters or for commissioned projects. This is among my favorite activities in the city, from which I draw endless inspiration for my own art. We will view artists working on their projects within some galleries, and learn about the many different techniques, styles and influences present in Oaxaca and México. We will speak with the artists and learn about their crafts and what inspires them. On this tour, you'll have the unique opportunity to go into Xochimilco, a town that the legendary Aztecs left their mark on, to visit the houses of local artisans, where they create their artpieces.
·Our tour will start from the Templo Santo Domingo de Guzman. ·We will enter the Templo and discuss its history and the important role it has always played in the city. ·Then we will proceed to Mano Magica Gallery, one of the least visited yet most beautiful galleries in the city. Here we will see its current exhibit as well as its permanent collection of prominent Oaxaca painters. ·Then we will visit La Maquina Taller de Gráfica, and Subterraneos Gallery/Workshop. Here we will watch and learn about the process of engraving, etching, charcoal drawing, mural preparations and much more. ·Next, we will visit a number of tin art and looming artists in their private homes in Xochimilco. ·Here we will experience the live process of looming and tin working at shops run by the same families for many generations. ·At last, we'll be back to the center of town to finish the tour. This itinerary could be customized upon request.
