Learn the history of Día de los Muertos and take a tour of the National Museum of Mexican Art's 35th annual Day of the Dead exhibition.
The 2021 exhibition pays tribute to and remembers the numerous individuals from Mexico and the U.S. who in the past two years have died from COVID-19. During the pandemic, many of us were heartbroken to be unable to spend time with our loved ones. As we are now able to gather, we join together to grieve and remember the ones we lost during these two years. The collective act of mourning is a fundamental aspect of annual Day of the Dead commemorations and offers a healing way to acknowledge, accept, and bear the inevitable.
The National Museum of Mexican Art defines Mexican culture as sin fronteras (without borders), and their programs and exhibitions capture the wide range of Mexican cultural expressions and art forms, from ancient to modern and on both sides of the border. They represent the Mexican community from its own point of view and in its own voice.
