They help to understand the peculiarities of life and the mentality of people who lived in those days. These unique items have primarily historical value. At Galeria Contici, you can get in touch with history.
Brief Description of Pre-Columbian Art
The term “pre-Columbian art” refers to the architecture, art, and crafts of the indigenous peoples of North, Central, and South America and the Caribbean islands (c. 13,000 BC–1500 AD) before Christopher Columbus arrived in America. Sometimes, you can see Mesoamerica instead of Central America, describing a cultural region in the Americas that extends roughly from central Mexico to Belize. The area also includes Guatemala, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, and northern Costa Rica.
Pre-Columbian art flourished throughout the Americas since at least 13,000 BC. Before the European conquests, it sometimes continued for some time after that. Many pre-Columbian cultures did not have writing systems, so visual art expressed those cultures’ cosmology, worldview, religion, and philosophy and served as mnemonic devices. These cultures produced a wide range of visual arts, including painting on textiles, hides, rock and cave surfaces, bodies, especially faces, pottery, architectural details, including interior frescoes, wood paneling, and other available surfaces.
Collection Features
The gallery has assembled an impressive collection of artifacts and works of art created by the inhabitants of North, Central, and South America long before the arrival of European colonists. The civilizations of this region reached heights in representing the flora, fauna, and deities through art in the 1st millennium BCE. The Olmecs references to whom can be found in Aztec historical chronicles, created their works from jade and baked clay. Exhibits related to the Aztec civilization are mainly stone sculptures. A collection of artifacts found in the Caribbean region provides insight into the religious worldview of the local people.
