"The Day of the Dead - el día de los muertos" in Mexico is one of the most important traditions. This celebration represents the syncretism of pre-Hispanic and Spanish religious and cultural elements and is a key part of the Mexican cultural heritage. UNESCO recognized the importance of this cultural manifestation and included it in the List of Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity in 2008, defining it as traditional, inclusive, representative and community.

This year, the Latin American Institute and the Lichtraum by Sonia Siblik association invite you to the festivities and various events that will take place in honor of our deceased loved ones.

The exhibition "The Art of Dying - el Arte de Morir" presents works by artists from different countries who have dealt with the topic of death. Dying is seen as a way to live on in the collective memory of the family. The works reflect different perspectives and artistic forms of expression that address death as an integral part of life and cultural identity.

Immerse yourself in this moving exhibition and experience how diverse and profound the subject of death can be interpreted artistically. Further information about the exhibition and the participating artists can be found on the following website:
