Grupo Financiero Banamex Accival is pleased to present The Art of Featherwork in Mexico go the general public. With the publication of this book, the Group once again reaffirms its commitment to participate in the preservation of traditional values and culture in Mexico. We also hope to strengthen our presence as a solid leader in an efficient financial administration within the society which we are dedicated to serve. This edition represents the most complete inventory of the art of featherwork ever produced: from the works of pre-Hispanic cultures (some nearly lost to the ravages of time), across the centuries to pieces still being created today. The splendid photographs that accompany the text teach us more about this extraordinary art. The pieces featured come from all over the world. This book is part of the Group's promise to rescue and promote the art and history of our country. We hope that, in keeping with that promise, we can increase awareness of this important aspect of Mexican culture.
