DF 2020 - Home - Citibanamex 3, 2nd attempt

One again, I'm hearing that video and photos didn't go through so am trying again.

I'm back at home which most of you will know by now.  It seemed prudent to return while I still could.  A little belatedly, things are shutting down in Mexico.  Social distancing is counter to the Mexican mentality but I hope they get on board or it's going to be very bad.  Given the poor economy, poverty and inadequate medical resources, it's going to be bad enough anyway.

I'm in quarantine for for a couple of weeks so will have lots of time to work on the blog. 

This little video is a reminder of the vibrant city DF was

Back to the Maestros de Artes Populares



 Talavera ceramics from Puebla



 Saddles as art


A section of the exhibition was devoted to textiles, some of the most exquisite I've seen.

A beautifully embroidered huipil, a traditional garment seen widely all over Mexico.












 And still more to come
