Join us for an unveiling ceremony for “La Catrina” by artist José Luis Martinez Pasillas on Thursday, Oct. 26, noon-12:30 p.m. outside of One Exchange Plaza (219 Fayetteville St., Raleigh, NC 27601).
On display until Nov. 4, “La Catrina” is an iconic symbol of the Mexican Day of the Dead tradition. Casa Aguascalientes Chicago commissioned the artwork to travel to different cities to raise awareness about Mexican art, culture, and the Day of the Dead tradition. The 12-foot-tall sculpture was hand-painted and carved by artist José Luis Martinez Pasillas in the Mexican state of Aguascalientes.
