Amazing Contemporary Art Experience—A Highlight of the Trip - The private tour of artists’ studios and workshops in Oaxaca with Oaxaca Mío was an absolute highlight of our trip to Oaxaca. We met five completely thrilling contemporary artists working in a variety of styles and mediums and producing breathtaking pieces. Jose Antonio, our guide, was incredibly knowledgeable and asked great probing questions to create fascinating conversations with each artist. It was such an illuminating experience to hear the artists talk about their practices and influences, and the tour left me with a deep appreciation for Oaxaca’s role as a vibrant hub of cultural creativity. Overall, the art was beautiful, the artists were welcoming and fascinating, and the guides facilitated an experience that was illuminating and fun. I can’t recommend this experience highly enough.
