Curator: Jeanette Favrot Peterson Guest-curated by Jeanette Favrot Peterson, Ph.D., Latin American Art historian. The exhibition was funded in part by The California Arts Council, the City of San Diego, the County of San Diego, Mingei International Corporate Associates and Mingei International’s Director’s Circle. This exhibition included ancient and contemporary Mesoamerican sculptures in stone, ceramic, jade and wood. On loan from thirty-one museums and private collections, these objects express man's symbolic use of natural forms. The Mingei International documentary publication, The Mingei International documentary publication, PRECOLUMBIAN FLORA AND FAUNA: Continuity of Plant and Animal Themes in Mesoamerican Art, was authored by Dr. Peterson and Judith Strupp Green. |
