Description
Mounted at the National Museum of Mexican Art, the presentation marks the 40th annual Día de Muertos exhibition. Looking back across four decades of collecting, preserving, and celebrating Mexican art and culture, the curated survey uses the permanent holdings to trace how the holiday has evolved alongside the evolution of the museum itself.
