Book Description
Alfonso García Tellez is one of just three Otomí artistans to have produced bound books made from amate with muñecos (figures) pasted in. These books derive from a centuries-old Mesoamerican tradition of using amate figurines for spells, cures, witchcraft, and other rituals - in this case, by the indigenous Otomí People, from the villages around San Pablito, Puebla. Paper cut-outs representing different spirits are actually used in the Otomi offering and curing ceremonies of San Pablito. In the late 1970s, Otomí artisans, including García Tellez, began making amate to sell to tourists in the craft markets of Mexico. García Tellez's books include handwritten descriptions, in Spanish, of the ceremonies in which they were used. Over nearly four decades and with the help of members of his family (namely his two wives and daughter), García Tellez made hundreds of copies of each book. However, no two copies are exactly alike. The text-in-hand is a ritual of an offering to ask for rain for abundant crops. --
