Exhibition

Mexican Fiestas presents a vivid chronicle of the historic and diverse traditions of Mexican festivals—deeply rooted expressions of the country’s religious and cultural heritage—as experienced through the lens of Houston photographer Geoff Winningham. Beginning with his first trip to the state of Michoacán for el Dia de Muertos, Winningham’s work spans decades, documenting a wide array of festive traditions in villages throughout Mexico, highlighting how these celebrations unite communities through centuries-old traditions of art, music, dance, and worship.

Mexican Fiestas is an exhibition by Humanities Texas created in collaboration with photographer Geoff Winningham.
