    Gallery specialized in contemporary artistic and artisanal manifestations of Mexico. A curatorial approach that preserves and expands upon traditional mythologies and anthropology. Storytelling through nomadic collections, forever joined by their birthplace.
     
    MANO is a platform that exposes international audiences to the diversity of contemporary art and design produced in Mexico, and connects the Mexican-American community with our motherland. Our doors are open to our community, and to anyone who is interested in exploring our heritage as we create a unique space for great Mexican artists to be seen and the next  generation to emerge.

    NEW AGE NEW RUGS

    Ancestral wool rugs from Teotitlán del Valle, Oaxaca, Mx. 10 March 2023

    MANO's vision and focus is to project, exhibit and make visible the new practices within Mexican folk art, as well as the work of artists who involve a craft technique with their hometown.

    In Oaxaca's case, Teotitlán del Valle is one of the towns that has transcended the most in its craftwork, and whose origin is multiple. Each artisan provides an aesthetic contribution that is appropriated; being such appropriation and collective interpretation something very common in towns that are dedicated to some craft, a fact that homogenizes the aesthetics of a practice, and defines the work of a generation and its community.
    In this exhibition we present 5 young artisans from three different generations, in which we see a unique and fresh proposal to the productions that have been made before.
