Profiles of Featured Artists in
San Miguel de Allende

I t's become almost impossible to talk about art in Mexico without talking about San Miguel artists. San Miguel de Allende has developed into probably the most popular and the most famous of all art towns in Mexico, with dozens of galleries, major art schools, an art and design center, and possibly hundreds of working artists, both Mexican and foreign.

They come for the light, so pure and piercing and rich, making the colors of the colonial buildings and the bougainvillea pop and adding richness to everything in view. They come for the views: everywhere you look in San Miguel, there's something worthy of the brush, the pencil, the sculptor's tool. And they come for the ambience: wherever there are artists, there is bound to be a rich, eclectic and interesting cultural and everyday life.

In San Miguel de Allende, art is at the heart of things. One of the best ways to get to know her is to meet San Miguel artists.
