Time of reflection: NM artists collaborate for 'Tlacuilo' while marking 500 years since fall of Tenochtitlán

Tlacuilo is the name for the artist scribes who created the codices. These artists created visual history through the lens of their culture. On June 30, 1521, the Aztec people drove out Hernán Cortés and his allies from the city of Tenochtitlán. Many Spanish soldiers their Native allies were killed in what is called La Noche Triste by the Spanish. ...................... This was an important – but short-lived – victory. The entire Aztec empire would soon meet a different and destructive outcome just weeks later. On Aug. 13, it will mark the 500-year anniversary of the fall of Tenochtitlán. New Mexico artists are teaming up for “Tlacuilo: 500 Years Art Show” at Torguga Gallery. The show opens on Friday, July 9, and runs through July 19.
