Argentina more than 150 archaeological pieces from different cultures
that inhabited the Gulf of Mexico, their gods, their various shapes and
representations, the many rituals developed on behalf of them, and
crafts exercised by the inhabitants of the area before the Spanish
conquest. According to its curator, David Morales Gómez, the
exhibition is “a fine selection of pieces that show the huge variety of
ideas, social structure and complexity of an ideology.” From a
special selection, with recently recovered pieces never exhibited
before, the works impress with their symbolic force and beauty. They
belong to the patrimony of 13 museums, two Houses of Culture, an
archaeological site and the National Institute Anthropology and History
Mexico (INAH).The exhibition also features the production of those
who worked with indispensable sea materials like conch and snail shells
to make bracelets, rings and armbands. It includes fragments of mural
paintings, which are crucial to grasping the vital, sacred and profane
orders of these cultures.Fundación PROA Av. Pedro de Mendoza 1929, La BocaTuesdays to Sundays, 11am to 7pm Mondays closed.
