The Piñatarama
Piñatarama is a joint project of Cecilia Meade, David Gamez and Vertigo Gallery.
Entre el diseño contemporáneo de personajes y la tradición popular.
Sorpresa, juego, diseño y tradición son algunos de los ejes de esta exposición.Piñatarama busca dejarnos sorprender por el inesperado resultado de la interpretación de parte de artesanos mexicanos de estos 25 personajes, creados por diseñadores e ilustradores de diferentes partes del mundo. Brindando de esta manera una particular instalación donde las piñatas “de diseño” reflejen este aspecto contemporáneo de mixturas, yuxtaposición y de apropiación de un objeto culturalmente arraigado tanto en México como en el resto de Latinoamérica.
La piñata está asociada a la cultura latina, aunque los historiadores señalan a Asia (particularmente a China) como su punto real de origen. Se supone que el famoso viajero Marco Polo, en su visita a esa nación, vio cómo los chinos creaban coloridas figuras de animales cubiertas con papel, las cuales se colgaban con arreos, y se usaban en las celebraciones del Año Nuevo. Como buen observador, Polo llevó a Europa la idea de esas primeras piñatas. Aunque conserva en diversas regiones su significación religiosa, en la actualidad, la piñata se considera un símbolo de diversión y entretenimiento.
Piñatarama es un proyecto conjunto de Cecilia Meade, David Gamez y Vértigo Galería.

At first Nomonotono was concieved as a simple illustration exhibition. But besides gathering wonderful images of artists both emerging and reknown, something special was required: each illustrator should prepare a piece of graphic art in which one colour was clearly dominant. A simple chromatic premise for both artists and audience. As for the theme, style, dimensions and technique we insisted on each artist taking the project to their own grounds. The result is a rich repertoire of pieces grouped in the gradient that forms Nomonotono.
