Mexico's ceramic sculpture is the outcome of a millenary tradition. Since pre-Hispanic times, the use of clay has been a characteristic element of diverse and very sophisticated forms of artistic expression. The Dream of Earth: 21st Century Tendencies in Mexican Sculpture was an exhibit that showed the vitality and diversity of an art with ancestral roots, projected to the future as a form of profound expression. This exhibit included six of the most renowned representatives of Mexican contemporary clay sculpture. The six sculptors represented in "The Dream of Earth" do not constitute a group. They are united simply by their use of clay. Each one of the artists has obtained critical and public acclaim for their talent and artistic mastery.
