Lecture "Holidays in Mexico" Automatic translate

Speaker: Culture Attaché of the Embassy of Mexico in Russia - Jorge Reynoso

Exhibition "Mexico and Russia. Plexus" held as part of the international program of cultural exchange between the Russian Federation and Mexico, opening the third season of the project “On the familiar and unknown”. Many of us represent Mexicans through rather traditional symbols (multi-colored poncho, sombrero, cacti and guitar), but this is not entirely true. The exhibition, which is based on the study of national textiles, as a conductor of the cultural traditions of Mexico, will dispel myths, reveal familiar and unexplored facts about the country, and make it possible to trace the key signs and symbols embodied in design, as well as its interweaving with Russian culture. And what else can so brightly reflect the history and traditions of the people, if not national clothing: its color, symbols, ornament and jewelry?! After all, this country is known not only for its unique history, but also for its ability to preserve and enhance rich cultural traditions, including in fashion and textiles.

For the first time, students from Russia take part in the project. The works were selected on the basis of an open competition, which took place at Moscow State University of Design and Technology with the participation of the cultural attache of the Embassy of Mexico in Russia Jorge Reynoso, experts from the fashion industry (Irina Karimova, Denis Solopov, Dmitry Babushkin), leading teachers of Moscow State Technical University. Next year, the baton of the competition will be the creative educational institutions of Mexico.
