Guatemala crée avec ses mains

Marais / Bastille / République

Guatemala invites its visitors to discover its rich cultural heritage while exploring a vibrant and modern country. As the cradle of the Maya civilization, Guatemala offers world-renowned tourist destinations such as the majestic Antigua Guatemala, the stunning Lake Atitlán, and the ancient Tikal National Park. However, Guatemala is more than just its historical and natural treasures: it has embraced contemporary design and local craftsmanship as forms of expression that bridge its past with its present and future. This exhibition brings together objects and processes from some of the country’s most prominent designers and artisans who are precisely working at the intersection of handcrafted work and a contemporary vision of design and creation.
