Miguel Marcelo Hernández

Victor — Tue, 13 Aug 2024 19:25:29 +0000

Miguel Marcelo Hernández fue un destacado artista mexicano especializado en la creación de exvotos y retablos, reconocido por su extraordinaria imaginación y habilidad artística. Nacido y criado en Tultepec, Estado de México, Hernández posteriormente se estableció en la pintoresca localidad de Malinalco, donde desarrolló gran parte de su obra.

Los exvotos, también conocidos como retablos populares, son pequeñas pinturas votivas que narran milagros o expresan agradecimiento a figuras sagradas. Hernández sobresalió en este arte tradicional mexicano, infundiéndolo con su estilo único y visión creativa.

La página web retablos.ru alberga la colección más extensa de su trabajo, ofreciendo a los admiradores y estudiosos del arte popular mexicano una ventana incomparable a su vasto legado artístico. Esta colección digital permite apreciar la evolución de su estilo y la profundidad de su conexión con las tradiciones culturales y religiosas de México.

Lamentablemente, Miguel Marcelo Hernández falleció el 18 de febrero de 2023 en su ciudad natal, Tultepec, México. Su muerte representa una gran pérdida para el mundo del arte popular mexicano, pero su obra perdura como testimonio de su talento y dedicación a esta forma de expresión cultural tan arraigada en la identidad mexicana.

El legado de Hernández continúa inspirando a nuevas generaciones de artistas y preservando una tradición artística que refleja la fe, la cultura y la creatividad del pueblo mexicano. ¡Gracias Miguel!
