From the Olmec to the Aztecs, Mexico holds nearly three thousand years of history. Across rainforests in the south and the central highlands, diverse civilizations rose, built monumental cities, and eventually declined. Each culture has its own story, yet they are linked by shared symbols, beliefs, and artistic traditions.
In this talk, we’ll explore the rich cultural heritage of our neighbors to the south through architecture, painting, and sculpture, across a time span that parallels European history from the pre-Greek Minoans to the High Renaissance. Pre-Columbian Mexico will be offered by guest lecturer Thomas Germano, Professor of Art History at Farmingdale State College and two-time recipient of NEA grants for the study of Mesoamerican art history and culture.
