The folk art inspired by Day of the Dead, celebrated in Mexico and around the world, including the American Southwest, powerfully communicates the cultural traditions of this joyous holiday. As a companion volume to the authors' Day of the Dead, this book focuses on the artistic imagery of Day of the Dead, including the skulls, skeletons, and the iconic figure of Catrina, as seen in various pieces of market art, community art and contemporary art. The work and influence of important Mexican folk artists, such as Jose Guadalupe Posada and Diego Rivera, are represented and discussed.
Laughing Skulls and Dancing Skeleton are some of the most iconic and vivid imagery associated with Day of the Deadfestivities. Day of the Dead Folk Art showcases many examples of those skulls and skeletons, as well as variations onJosé Guadalupe Posada’s traditional La Catrina, sugar skulls and pan de muerto from local Mexican markets, communitysand sculptures and cemetery decorations, and original interpretations of traditional Day of the Dead imagery from contemporary Mexican folk artists.
