¿Cuántas cosas se pueden encontrar en una pieza de artesanía? Este libro de arte popular mexicano pone a prueba tu capacidad de observación: hay que buscar, casi con lupa, comida en altares, animales exóticos, mariposas que no lo son y lagartijas escondidas. Todo esto y más entre cinco mil miniaturas de barro, a través de rectas y curvas, en medio de los hilos entretejidos, entre cada una de las puntadas de un bordado, en las escenas pintadas en un amate, en las visiones de un chamán y hasta en el estanquillo "La Luz". Una celebración del arte mexicano.

English Translation

Folk Art: Search and Find

How many things can you discover in a single piece of handicraft? This Mexican folk art book invites readers to sharpen their powers of observation and hunt, almost with a magnifying glass, for food on altars, exotic animals, butterflies that aren't butterflies, and little lizards. Search among five thousand clay miniatures, along straight lines and curves, within interwoven threads and embroidery stitches, in scenes painted on amate paper, in a shaman's visions, and even inside the corner shop "La Luz." A celebration of Mexican artistry and looking closely.
