Details
Mata Ortiz pottery is a unique style of ceramic art based on pottery found at the archaeological site of Casas Grandes in the Mexican state of Chihuahua. Artists from the town of Mata Ortiz, led in the 1970s by Juan Quezada Celado, used that ancient artwork as a starting point, and have since developed their own unique look sought after by art collectors worldwide.
Throughout the week, José Mario Jimenez, art dealer and presenter, will speak about the history of the pottery style and its cultural significance and join us for pottery demonstrations and workshops led and taught by Mata Ortiz potter Cesar Bugarini.
For those who want early access to the pottery, get tickets for the pre-sale event on Tuesday, September 17, from 6:30-8:30 PM. Tickets are $25 and available to the public.
