Arte y Lotería: The Art That Lived in the House
"¡El gallo! ¡La dama! ¡El catrín!" Beans on the cards, the whole table leaning in, somebody's tía yelling "¡Lotería!" before anyone else. Our familias kept their art in the everyday: the lotería deck in the kitchen drawer, papel picado over the patio, the alebrije on the shelf, the talavera plate nobody was allowed to use. These pieces carry that art forward.

4. The art in the house
