Maquetas y Bocetos: Creatures of a Dream World

Presented by Mexican Cultural Center DuPage at Gallery 200

This multi-dimensional exhibit explores the history and magic behind the alebrije, the unique Mexican artform that embodies whimsey and mythology.

The models and drawings featured in the exhibit were created as part of the work the Mexican Cultural Center has been doing in collaboration with Meztli Artist Collective, its partner in Mexico City, to bring 48 Mexican masterpieces to DuPage County. 18 large alebrijes and 30 smaller spirit animal sculptures will be on display at Cantigny Park June 12 – October 31, 2022.

Opening reception for Maquetas y Boxetos is slated for April 8, 5:00 - 9:00 pm.
