In
the years following the Mexican Revolution (1910–20), Mexican jewelry and
other silver objects were crafted with an entirely innovative approach, informed
by modernism and the creation of a new Mexican national identity. Antonio Pineda
was a member of the Taxco School and is recognized as a world-class designer.
Pineda’s jewelry is especially known for its elegant acknowledgment of the
human form. It is often said that a Pineda fits the body perfectly, that it feels
right when it is worn. Nearly two hundred examples of Pineda’s acclaimed
silver work will be displayed in Silver Seduction: The Art of Mexican Modernist
Antonio Pineda, is a traveling exhibition organized by the
Fowler Museum at UCLA» in Santa Fe through January 2, 2011. (Photo,

Silver Seduction: The Art of Mexican
Modernist Antonio Pineda and its publication are made possible through

The exhibition was developed by the curatorial team of the Fowler Museum with
consulting curator Gobi Stromberg. All works presented are either from the collections
of Cindy Tietze and Stuart Hodosh or the Fowler Museum at UCLA. Press
