San Miguel de Allende Sculpture
San Miguel De Allende; the art of the Stone Sculpture. The images and video which comprise this presentation were taken in a shop where Cantara Lime Stone blocks were turned into sculptures by Artisans who hand carved the stone into beautiful religious sculptures. These artisans were producing large religious and non religious sculptures for local churches and grand homes. The Stone Artisans of San Miguel are few and the number is falling quickly because of automation and the generation change. The better educated new generation find jobs in factories under constructed all over Mexico. What you are witnessing is a rare glimpse into the process and skill required to produce a piece of limestone into a work of Art.

ENORMOUS MUSEUM IN MEXICO (NATIONAL MUSEUM OF ANTHROPOLOGY)| Eileen Aldis
The National Museum of Anthropology (Museo Nacional de Antropología) is absolutely enormous. Located in Mexico City's Chapultepec Park, it's the largest and most visited museum in all of Mexico. The museum has an extensive collection of artifacts from Mexico's pre-Columbian history that are of special archaeological and anthropological significance. Covering about 80,000 square metres, the architecture is stunning and has a huge umbrella-like structure supported by just a single beam. Some of the highlights of the museum are giant stone heads from the Olmec civilization as well as treasures from the Mayan civilization. Two of the most popular attractions are the Aztec Stone Of The Sun and a reconstruction of the tomb of Pacal The Great, a Mayan ruler who was deified (603 CE - 683 CE). You could easily spend days in this massive museum, but it's worth seeing even if you only have a couple of hours.

LEAD IN:
Preparations for Mexico's festival of the dead are underway in the country's capital.
The 'Day of the Dead' is an opportunity for Mexicans to celebrate both life and death.
STORYLINE:
Musicians dressed in colourful costumes, wearing scary skull like masks....
...it can only be preparations for one of Mexico's most famous festivals the 'Day of the Dead', on November 2.
The feast draws its roots from the indigenous cultures native to the region, who venerated the goddess of death, Mictecacihuatl.
It also marks the Catholic feast day 'All Souls Day'.
Today many Mexicans build small shrines to remember their dead relatives and visit their graves to bring gifts of food to the deceased.
In the capital an art exhibition inspired by the 'Day of the Dead' is being held at the Frank Mayer Museum.
The show opened on the 25 October and displays large elaborate caricatures.
Art critic Raul de la Rosa says the 'Day of the Dead' festival stimulates all the senses and celebrates life.
At the foot of one of the paintings is a traditional altar adorned with colourful flowers.
In a market in Mexico City, preparations for the festival are also well underway, with colourful and macabre items for sale, from skulls to pumpkins.
The city's cultural centre 'Faro de Oriente' is making large cardboard statues, which will be showcased in the city's main square, also known as Zocalo.
