The Mexican. . . is familiar with death, jokes about it, caresses it, sleeps with it, celebrates it; it is one of his favourite toys and his most steadfast love." Octavio Paz, El laberinto de la soledad, ( The Labyrinth of Solitude, 1961).The Day of the Dead is a comprehensive, visual compilation of all forms of artistic material celebrating the world-famous annual Mexican festival. According to Mexican tradition, one day in the year belongs exclusively to the dead, a day on which they are granted celestial permission to visit friends and relatives on earth. In modern Mexico, festivities for the dead are idiosyncratic. Blending pre-Christian and Christian elements, celebrations for All Saints' and All Souls? are unique in the Catholic world. Mexicans are as tormented by the idea of mortality as other nations, yet they honour and receive the departed with good cheer, visual splendour and imagination. Families welcome the returning souls with flowers, incense, candles and special foods. This is not a sombre occasion, but a time of feasting and reunion.
This anthology considers how the Day of the Dead has been celebrated in visual art and culture, from the traditional and iconic illustrations of skulls and singing skeletons by seminal lithographer Jose Guadalupe Posada to the paper cuts of Aaron Velasco Pacheco and representations of the festival by Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo and in the folk art of the Linares family.
Curated by Julian Rothenstein and written by Chloe Sayer, an independent scholar and curator, specializing in Mexican art and culture, this is a must-have book for anyone interested in this extraordinary cultural event and its artistic representation.

Better way to open a can
Color: Blue
I may not have arthritis, but it saves time and energy. I will be buying another one for the band concession stand. It beats using an original can opener.

Excellent Can Opener – Safe, Effortless, and Smartly Designed!
I’m so impressed with this electric can opener! From the moment I took it out of the box, it was incredibly easy to use—just one touch and it does all the work for you. What really sets it apart is how it opens cans with a smooth edge, so there's absolutely no worry about scratching yourself or dealing with sharp, jagged lids. That’s a huge relief, especially for someone like me who cooks often and has had accidents with traditional openers in the past.
The design is compact and sleek, making it easy to store in a drawer, and it feels solid and well-made in the hand. It’s also surprisingly quiet while running. I’ve used it on all types of cans, and it works like a charm every time. Honestly, I didn’t expect to love a can opener this much, but it makes such a difference in the kitchen. If you're thinking about getting one, this is 100% worth it!
