DAY OF THE DEAD (ARTES DE MEXICO) (HB)

The Mexican holiday of Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead) brings together sorrow and laughter, drawing from indigenous traditions of celebrating one’s ancestors and loved ones who have been lost. It’s a day of community and exuberant creativity, where sugar and skulls exist side by side. In this bilingual book, Mexican art and culture magazine Artes de Mexico presents a written, illustrated and photographic account that takes readers through the tradition’s origins, its history and evolution, and the many ways it is celebrated today.
