Art Sleuthing in SMA

Published June 15, 2023

For more than a year I have been writing about the history of art in San Miguel. There are so many artistic treasures in our city dating back to Colonial times, when major novo-Hispanic artists created sculptures and painting, most of which remain on walls and back rooms of the churches. There are also later works, those that appeared after our city moved from decay to a rebirth, and a move toward renewal. In the 1930s and beyond, San Miguel was invigorated by the founding of a school of art, and the influx of new artists. These newcomers also left their legacy here, mostly with murals on many of the walls of public buildings and churches.
