Antropología (In)visible: Discover Women Creators from Abya Yala at the National Anthropology Museum

This micro-exhibition, 'A Walk through Abya Yala: Creators', showcases the creative energy of women from the Americas. It features a selection of pieces including ceramics, textiles, and prints, highlighting their significant roles and artistic contributions across various cultures.

Continuing the exploration of Abya Yala, a name preferred by many indigenous peoples for the American continent, this installment of the 'Antropología (In)visible' display focuses on female creators. The exhibition aims to highlight the often-silenced roles of women, who have historically been central to giving life, engaging in diverse activities, and producing domestic, artisanal, and artistic objects across global cultures. The selection presented includes various pieces created by women from different American cultures, notably ceramics, textiles, and prints, offering a glimpse into their grandeur as creators. Visitors are invited to discover the women artists of Abya Yala within this micro-exhibition, located in the welcome area of the museum. The exhibition is presented as a "vitrina" (display case) within the museum's reception area and is part of a larger cycle dedicated to 'Creadoras' (Female Creators). It emphasizes the universal strength, energy, and wisdom of women, their fundamental role in human existence, and their diverse creative output across all spheres. This collection serves as a testament to the significant and determinant facet of women's history as creators.

Admission is by joint ticket with the permanent exhibition.
