1. My research took place mainly in public and academic libraries in the US, such as the Los Angeles Public Library, the New York Public Library, the Libraries of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Boston Public Library, the repositories at The Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and Harvard University. In Mexico, I worked in conjunction with The Museo Nacional de Antropología e Historia, the Centro Nacional de las Artes, the Universidad Iberoamericana, the Library from Relaciones Exteriores, and several libraries from UNAM . The catalogues gleaned from these libraries and used in the installation are a selection of my findings and don't encompass absolutely all of the exhibitions of pre-Hispanic artifacts exhibited in the world from 1959 until now. Nevertheless, archeologists from Templo Mayor, administrators from Relaciones Exteriores and other experts in the field have checked my selection and agreed that it offers the most comprehensive list ever compiled. |
