Lecture: Beyond Collecting Crafts in Mexico

January 24 - January 24,2020

Most collectors seek to preserve and document each piece in their collection. In some cases, their study and documentation add value to their collection, and subsequently generates knowledge of their pieces through exhibitions or publications. However, each individual item in a collection can be seen as a document unto itself. Join Dr. Héctor Rivero Borrell as he shares his discoveries and the consequences of his experiences working with two of the greatest collections formed in México—the Franz Mayer Collection and the Ruth Deutsch Lechuga Folk Art Collection.
