In Arde Gallery’s ABCdario, we highlight zoomorphism, an artistic style that incorporates animal forms into design or sculpture, exemplified by Eugenia Martínez’s “Dog with Glasses.” Zigzag, a dynamic pattern in art and design, adds rhythm and structure, as seen in Bradley Narduzzi’s totems. Zibu Allende in San Miguel de Allende offers a unique culinary experience by merging high Mexican cuisine with Thai food, celebrating the heritage of the Manila Galleon.
ZIBU ALLENDE | The restaurant that blends upscale Mexican cuisine with Thai food
Zibu Allende nace de una historia fascinante de intercambio cultural, remontándose al Galeón de Manila que unió Asia y México. Este navío histórico traía tesoros como sedas, porcelanas, joyas y especias que enriquecieron la cocina mexicana y global. En Zibu Allende, esta herencia se transforma en una experiencia gastronómica única al fusionar la cocina tailandesa con la alta cocina mexicana. Aquí podrás disfrutar de manjares irresistibles que combinan sabores picantes, ácidos, dulces y salados, ofreciendo una experiencia culinaria inolvidable en uno de los mejores restaurantes de San Miguel de Allende.
ZIGZAG | The playful pattern of lines
The zigzag is a versatile artistic tool that adds dynamism and structure to visual compositions. In the context of art and design, the zigzag is used to infuse energy and rhythm, often guiding the viewer’s gaze through the piece. A notable example of the use of zigzag in art is Bradley Narduzzi’s work with his totems, where we can see how this pattern is integrated into the three-dimensional design not just as decoration, but also contributing to the structure and visual presence of the piece. The combination of wood and acrylic paint allows for a rich exploration of contrasts and colors, further accentuating the impact of the work. Zigzag in art, as exemplified by Narduzzi’s totems, is more than just a simple pattern; it is a tool that enriches the visual narrative, adds complexity, and transforms the surface of the artwork into a visually stimulating experience.
ZOOMORPHISMO | The animal forms in art
Zoomorphism is an artistic style that integrates animal forms into design or sculpture, either realistically or stylized. This approach explores the connection between the animal and human worlds, blending elements of fauna with creative expressions to create works that transcend time and tradition. Present in both ancient and contemporary art, zoomorphism reveals the richness of the animal world through art. At Arde Gallery, Eugenia Martínez’s Dog with glasses is a prominent example of how zoomorphism is expressed in contemporary art.
