"Dia De Los Muertos has always been intriguing to me and with this show I hope to shed a little light on the subject, by asking artists to give us their rendition here in Detroit 2006" says show curator Diana Alva. Dia de los Muertos is considered one of Mexico's most wondrous celebrations, merging Spanish and European religion and traditions with ancient beliefs and superstitions of pre-Columbian Indian cultures dating as far back as 300 B. C. Living for the dead reflects the duality that is fundamental to Mexico's people, culture, art and history.absolutearts.com Premiere Portfolio Artist Dennis Jones has created an installation, "Toyland", for the exhibition.
