El Artesano by Carlomagno Pedro

El Artesano

I will be out of town from July 11th to 20th. The gallery will not be open but the website will be working away as usual. Orders will be shipped after July 20th. I will be checking email mesages and should be able to repy to inquiries.

Indigo Arts has moved upstairs to a space on the fourth floor of the Crane Building. I am still arranging things up here but I am open on a "by appointment or by chance" basis. I am usually in the building from Wednesday through Saturday from 12 to 6, but it is definitely best to phone or email first. Meanwhile, the Indigo Arts online gallery is operating as usual.
Please feel free to contact me with any questions in the mean time.

Carlomagno Pedro

Carlomagno Pedro lives in the Oaxaca village of San Bartolo Coyotepec, where he was born in 1965. He is known in Mexico and beyond as the sculptor of figures and calaveras (skeletons) in the burnished black clay for which his village is famous. In this work he brings the same black humor to printmaking. Like his famous predecessor, Guadalupe Posada, Carlomagno uses a cast of calaveras (skeletons) and diablos (devils) as foils for his social and political satire.
