    logo_sedonamuseum2Sedona AZ (April 8, 2015) – “Monday at the Museum” will feature master artist Oralia Lopez on April 20 at 11:00 a.m. at the Sedona Heritage Museum.

    Oralia has set the standard in Mata Ortiz for finely executed geometric pottery designs and will be demonstrating her skills. Some of her pottery will be available for sale at prices similar to direct prices in her village.

    John Bezy, geologist and co-author of “The Artistry and History of Mata Ortiz”, will offer a power point presentation on the history, inspiration and appreciation of this unique regional art form.

    20150408_Mata-Ortiz-potMata Ortiz pottery developed in a small village in Chihuahua, Mexico, less than 100 miles from the U.S.-Mexico border. Seen as a revival of an ancient Mesoamerican pottery tradition and based on 600 year old processes, materials, pigments, and designs, this pottery is considered art not craft. It has evolved from imitating pre-Hispanic designs to contemporary expressions by each individual potter or pottery family who produce distinctive individualized ware.

    This is a free event and open to the public.

    The Museum is located at 735 Jordan Road in Jordan Historical Park in Uptown Sedona and is open daily 11:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. For more information, call 928‑282‑7038.
