This lecture aims to provide an overview of contemporary design in Mexico, examining its evolving aesthetic and conceptual directions, its quest for identity, and its redefinition within a global framework. The presentation will highlight various approaches within this vibrant and dynamic design landscape, including designers who draw inspiration from cultural heritage, prioritize technological innovations, and champion artisanal solutions focusing on local contexts. These diverse paths underscore the richness and vitality of Mexico's current design scene.

Learn how to think like a designer and practice skills like observation, brainstorming, prototyping, and testing. Get inspired in the galleries, put on your designer hat (and your artist one!), and create wonderfully unique artwork.

Experiment with all kinds of media, from paint to paper to fabric and more! Play with materials and ideas like a true artist and take home art inspired by the many genres and materials seen in the museum’s diverse collections.

In this class for our youngest museum friends, we’ll explore all the basics of art! We’ll learn all about textures, shapes, lines, and more through games, stories, and of course art projects!

This presentation complements the exhibition The Life and Art of Tokio Ueyama, on display in the western American art permanent galleries on the 7th floor of the Martin Building until June 1, 2025. Curator of the exhibition JR Henneman will provide an overview of the artist and his life, including his studies at prestigious American institutions and his travels abroad. She will also consider his artwork, which features landscape, portraiture, and still life, and acknowledge the incarceration of Japanese people in the US during World War II between 1942 and 1945. At that time, Ueyama was forcibly removed from his home in southern California and sent to the Granada Relocation Center, now known as the Amache National Historic Site, in southeast Colorado. This presentation will consider how the DAM discovered and interpreted the artwork of this overlooked American artist and how we sensitively tell this challenging World War II history.
