Museo Regional de la Ceramica, Tlaquepaque

The emphasis is still on ceramics but the museum also has a room dedicated to Huichol art and holds events related to various types of indigenous crafts and culture.[3][5] However, the museum still maintains active participation in the preservation of indigenous handcrafts and folk art along with newer ceramic traditions.[6] In 2011, the la Comisión Nacional para el Desarrollo de los Pueblos Indígenas agreed to lend the museum 2,400 pieces from its rational indigenous arts collection for exhibition.His military service included that under General Antonio López de Santa Anna and he was executed for his support of Emperor Maximilian I of Mexico .[2] These areas are mostly concentrated in the Valley of Atemajac except for some made in the nearby Sayula mountain range, which is included because of its quality.Many of these pieces are slender necked jugs or lamp bases, often decorated with animals, such as rabbits, with distorted characteristics, giving them a surreal look.The oil, which is made of a resin extracted from pine trees, gives the painted pottery its brilliant sheen.[8][10] Above the lines stylized images of plants and animals, especially deer, rabbits, eagles, roosters and swans, are drawn.[10] High fire ceramics are not endemic to Jalisco, but stoneware and other types were introduced to the area in the 1960s and developed by Jorge Wilmot and Ken Edwards.[2][7][8][10] Several rooms of the museum contain displays of toys, masks and various types of ceramic figures, such as charros, soldiers and more.[5] There is a group of Mexico’s past and present presidents made by José Luis Núñez[5] and a rare set of figures related to the making of pottery including extraction of clay, kneading, shaping and firing done by Honorato Panduro.[2][7] The kitchen consists of a parapet of rubblestone masonry covered over in brick in which charcoal burning stoves are inlaid.
