Dance and public performance are two elements of human society that span across all cultures and peoples of the globe. This system of cultural expression often consists of detailed choreography and elaborate costumes, uniting our communities through shared connections and ritual presentation.For Latin America, dance is interwoven throughout the tapestry of their historical traditions. Beginning with the indigenous cultures of the Aztec, Inca, Maya, and Olmec, their celebratory carnivals and festivals evolved under the influence of European and African dance traditions to incorporate not only celebrational experiences but also used for expressions of faith, mourning, and even resistance.On view for the fall 2025 semester are a series of vibrantly painted and intricately decorated masks and dance costumes from Bolivia, Guatemala, and Mexico. They represent Latin America’s wide breadth of historical dance and parade traditions, ranging from the Bailé de los Animales to the annual Carnaval.Please join us throughout the semester to celebrate these works and their expressions of beauty, creativity, and connection through dance.It will be open Monday, September 8 – Thursday, November 20; 9am – 5pm. Visual Resource Collections and Gallery, Ste. 2109, Fine Arts Building, 2nd floor.
