Join the Mexican Cultural Center DuPage for the exhibit of Maquetas & Bocetos: Creatures of a Dream World. The multi-dimensional exhibit explores the history and magic behind the unique Mexican artform that is an alebrije.
The models and drawings to be featured were created as part of the work the Mexican Cultural Center has been doing in collaboration with Meztli Artist Collective, their partner in Mexico City, to bring 48 Mexican masterpieces to DuPage County. 18 large alebrijes, alebrijes monumentales, and 30 smaller spirit animal sculptures will be on display at Cantigny Park June 12 – October 31, 2022. For more information and for full Cantigny Park programming see www.cantigny.org.
