SUMMARY:Rosas y Revelaciones: Homage to la Virgen de Guadalupe
DESCRIPTION:ABOUT THE EXHIBIT\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Exhibit \n\n\n\nMexic-Arte Museum is proud to announce the opening of Rosas y Revelaciones: Homage to la Virgen de Guadalupe\, an exhibition honoring one of Mexico’s most enduring cultural and spiritual icons through ninety extraordinary textile works. Curated by Luisa Fernanda Perez\, this exhibition will be on display from April 17th to August 9th. \n\n\n\nCoordinated by Linda Hanna\, Rosas y Revelaciones brings together extraordinary garments and wearable works of art inspired by the image of la Virgen de Guadalupe\, created by textile artists from across Mexico. The collection reflects both deep devotion and bold artistic innovation\, offering visitors an intimate look at the ways traditional techniques can express profound faith\, imagination\, and identity. \n\n\n\nOriginally rooted in Hanna’s long residence in Oaxaca and her close relationships with artisans there\, the exhibition represents a remarkable range of textile traditions. The exhibition focuses primarily on clothing\, reflecting the historical tradition of la Virgen de Guadalupe’s first appearance on a tilma (cloak). \n\n\n\nThe exhibit is a true cross-section of Mexico’s rich textile heritage\, featuring works from artists representing sixteen states\, including Oaxaca\, Chiapas\, Chihuahua\, Guerrero\, Michoacán\, Puebla\, Veracruz\, and Yucatán. Featured artists from Mexico include master textile creators such as artisans from Teotitlán del Valle (Oaxaca)\, San Andrés Larráinzar (Chiapas)\, Tenango de Doria (Hidalgo)\, and Santa Clara del Cobre (Michoacán)\, among others\, whose garments reinterpret la Virgen through embroidery\, weaving\, appliqué\, beadwork\, and mixed media techniques.  \n\n\n\nThe exhibition also features photographs by Jesse Herrera\, documenting Our Lady of Guadalupe Church\, an essential spiritual and cultural site for the Mexican and Mexican American communities of Austin. Herrera is featured in Rosas y Revelaciones for his powerful photographic documentation of the church\, which is the first Catholic church established specifically to serve Mexican and Mexican Americans in Austin. Founded in 1907\, the church became a cornerstone of spiritual life\, cultural preservation\, and community organizing for generations of Mexican and Mexican American families. \n\n\n\nHis photographs\, drawn from the Mexic-Arte Museum permanent collection\, document both devotional practices and the architectural and communal life of Our Lady of Guadalupe Church. Importantly\, the original church was located within Austin’s historic 5th Street Mexican American Cultural District\, an area central to the cultural\, artistic\, and civic history of Mexican and Mexican American communities in the city. Through his lens\, Herrera captures not only the physical presence of the church but also the presence of la Virgencita in this community space of Austin\, Texas\, affirming her enduring spiritual and cultural significance. \n\n\n\nSince 1531\, la Virgen de Guadalupe has shaped the cultural and artistic identity of México. Rosas y Revelaciones: Homage to la Virgen de Guadalupe affirms her enduring power\, not only as a religious icon\, but as a universal symbol of hope\, identity\, and resilience. Her image is deeply woven into the cultural fabric of Latin America and beyond. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFEATURED ARTISTS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJesse Herrera – Born in Monterrey\, Mexico\, Jesse Herrera earned his B.A. in 1975 in art design from the University of Illinois at Chicago and a M.A. Degree in photojournalism from the University of Texas at Austin in 1990. Herrera began his photography career in Chicago working as a corporate photographer for the People’s Gas Company. Relocating to Austin in 1978\, he worked for several state agencies\, including the Texas Department of Agriculture\, the State Preservation Board\, and the Texas House of Representatives. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDETAILS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nExhibition: Rosas y Revelaciones: Homage to la Virgen de Guadalupe \n\n\n\nDates: April 17 – August 9\, 2026 \n\n\n\nLocation: Mexic-Arte Museum\, 419 Congress Avenue\, Austin\, TX  \n\n\n\nHours: Monday – Thursday\, 10 a.m. – 6 p.m.; Friday – Saturday\, 10 a.m. – 5 p.m. & Sunday\, 12 p.m. – 5 p.m. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSPECIAL TOURS\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo celebrate this exhibit\, Mexic-Arte hosted two special tours free to the public.

Photo by YANA.\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Artist\n\n\n\nIliana Louise “YANA” Delgado is a Mestiza illustrator\, painter and ceramicist currently based in San Antonio\, Texas. Originally from Buda\, Texas\, early childhood involvement with community arts\, activism\, and education led her to search for a deeper understanding of her cultural identity. YANA moved to San Antonio shortly after high school to pursue a BFA in ceramics from the University of Texas at San Antonio\, focusing her research on pre-colonial mythology. Inspired by art movements like Chicano/a/x civil rights and indigenous futurism\, YANA aims to cultivate a community which fosters compassion for the many forms and functions which connect us. \n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nArtist Statement\n\n\n\nMestizo\, derived from the Latin mixticius\, was used within the Spanish colonial casta system to denote a person of mixed ancestry. Within this archaic and rigid\, race-based hierarchy\, I continue to struggle to find grounding while navigating an America that casts me as “Mestiza.” Growing up in a suburb of central Texas\, I was often confronted with the disconnect between my cultural origins and the communities in which I was raised. The remedy I have found for this complex and contradictory identity is compassion. As a visual artist\, my work is shaped by both my community and my cultural lineage. I focus on Indigenous futurism as a means to question and critique the enduring impacts of colonialism. Through painting\, I use the canvas to educate\, communicate\, and illuminate our interconnectedness with the natural world. As a storyteller\, I carry forward traditional narratives through illustration\, painting\, and ceramics. My art becomes a tool for cultural healing—both for myself and for others. \n\n\n\n\nLook at Iliana’s Work\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nChangarrito Cart – August 15 & 16 and 22 & 23 \n\n\n\nArtists have the opportunity to sell their art on the Changarrito cart in front of the Museum (or an offsite location\, as representative for the Museum during various Austin festivals). Changarreando expands the reach of the artist by presenting their gallery online\, while allowing the option to sell merch over Instagram and receive 100% of the sale. \n\n\n\nIliana will be at the Mexic-Arte Museum featuring her artwork on the Changarrito cart right outside the Museum’s entrance on August 15 & 16 and 22 & 23 from 12 – 3 PM . \n\n\n\nFollow us on Instagram and Facebook for updates on original work available for purchase and behind the scenes of the artist’s work\, space\, and creative process.
