Presents
Muerte  à la Mode
“A Día de los Muertos Celebración with a twist”
Muerte a la mode is a show that will examine the rituals associated with the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos (Day of the Dead).  The focus of the exhibit is to bring artists together to re-examine the ritualistic traditions that occur, not just in Latin America but across all cultures. There is a wide spectrum of rituals we all have when it comes to honoring the deceased. In this show artists are encouraged to explore their own traditions as well as those of others. The scope of work is not limited to representing traditional rituals but also showing contemporary rituals in which we celebrate the deceased.
