SUMMARY:Members-Only Preview of Art of Devotion: The Santos de Palo Tradition of Puerto Rico
DESCRIPTION:Members can enjoy early access to Art of Devotion: The Santos de Palo Tradition of Puerto Rico at Mint Museum Randolph before it opens to the public!\nThe exhibition\, curated by guest curator Dorie Reents-Budet\, PhD\, is drawn entirely from the extensive Santos collection of Nitza Mediavilla Piñero and Francisco Toste Santana. Consisting of nearly 200 objects created over 300 years\, this exhibition delves into one of Puerto Rico’s most sacred folk-art traditions. The Santos de Palos are made from tree branches or roots. These small portrayals of Catholic saints were made by rural farmers to express their faith and give thanks for a divine blessing. From this humble beginning\, today’s versions are the quintessential expression of Puerto Rican cultural pride and national identity. \nNot a member? Join today!
