Historic Huichol yarn painting by Cresencio Perez Robles one of the founders of Modern Huichol yarn paintings. This 24 X 24 yarn painting is by master artist Cresencio Perez Robles. Perez?s work was included in book Art of the Huichol Indians, which accompanied an Exhibition of Huichol Indian Art, organized by the Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco. The exhibition traveled from San Francisco in 1978 to Chicago and New York. It was this show and the accompanying catalogue that first introduced Huichol yarn painting to the general public. Cresencio Perez Robles work was also featured the exhibit Living Traditions Mexican Popular Arts in 1992 at the University Art Museum at Albany State University of New York and the accompanying book of the same title. This picture was made in the 1970?s of wool yarn pressed onto wax spread on a wooden board. Today yarn paintings are made of acrylic yarn. On the back the artist wrote the meaning of the piece in both Huichol and in Spanish and it is signed by the artist. The painting is in pristine condition. It has been attached to a sturdy poplar brace and is wired for hanging. - Robert , posted 08/28/05 |
