Join us in the Exhibit House for an artist talk with Alexandro Martinez! Alex and his sisters, Nancy, Socorro, Lorena and Fanny, are part of a large family of Zapotec weavers. Their grandfather, Eliseo Martinez, founded Casa Martinez in 1936 and became well-known for the quality of his craft. Alex will discuss the natural dyes used to color the exquisite weavings produced himself and his family. Alex is passionate about weaving and keeping his culture alive. His love for the craft and desire to maintain the ancient traditions of his ancestors are evident in the heirloom quality of his products. Click here to learn more about Alex.
