The traditional Mexican-American home, Griffith asserts, begins at the sidewalk. The exhibition is full of such fascinating insights. Positively drenched in white angels, swans and flowers, the cake is on a tall platform reached by mirrored stairs. There's much, much more in the show, including murals combining Christian and Aztec imagery, a splendid nacimiento and Virgin of Guadalupe shrine, ironwork, a low-rider bike and embroidered altar cloths. The Traditional Arts of Tucson's Mexican-American Community continues through January 13 at the University of Arizona Museum of Art .
