APRIL 25, 2007 at 1:30 pm at the American Folk Art Museum
FOCUS ON COLLECTORS AND COLLECTING - COLLECTING SANTOS, RETABLOS, AND EX-VOTOS
$3 General Admission
Free to members, seniors, students
Speaker: Deborah Dwyer
Santos and retablos are now primarily historical objects, while ex-votos continue to be created as a tradition still in progress. Deborah Dwyer will explain how, aside from artistic charm, these Hispanic artforms offer collectors a wealth of opportunities for insight into religious folk art. Dwyer has authored numerous articles on Latin American folk art and has taught several courses at the American Folk Art Museum.
