Mexican lottery

STUDY 64. Benicolet, 2

Mexican lottery is a traditional American country game equivalent to bingo, formed by a fight of 54 numbered cards with drawings of figures and characters from popular culture: the drunk, the mermaid, the skull… It has been reproduced many times in recent years 100 years as part of the popular iconography of Mexico and, of so much, new updated versions of the original game appear. In this of 2017 what study shows 64, curated by Roger Omar and exhibited recently at Illustration Week in Tel Aviv, many state and international artists who did not know the game have participated: Carole Hénaff, Donforty, Gustavo Berocan, Lawert, Txemacanthropus, Elías Taño, Martín López Lam, etc. AU
