Barroco mexicano

Barroco mexicano, or Mexican Baroque, refers to a rich cultural and artistic movement in Mexico during the 17th and 18th centuries. It combines European Baroque elements with indigenous influences, resulting in a unique style evident in architecture, painting, sculpture, and literature. Characterized by ornate details, dramatic contrasts, and emotional intensity, it reflects the complexities of colonial society. Notable examples include the intricate facades of churches, vibrant murals, and masterpieces by artists like Miguel Cabrera. This movement played a significant role in shaping Mexican identity and continues to influence contemporary art and culture.
