William Spratling. an innovative and talented designer of Mexican jewelry, silver hollowware, tin, copper, and furniture, demonstrated his appreciation for, and sensitivity to the early cultures of Mexico. He established a business model for the artistic development and growth of the silver industry in Taxco. At the beginning of October 2002, The San Antonio Museum of Art will present an exhibit entitled Maestros de Plata: William Spratling and the Mexican Silver Renaissance. This exhibit will travel from San Antonio, Texas to a number of other U.S. cities during 2003 and 2004. An expanded exhibit catalogue will be published by Abrams, that catalogue will include much new information in addition to data about the items on loan for the exhibit. It will certainly be an important reference source for anyone interested in 20th century Mexican silver. My latest research on Spratling's hallmarks and the development of his style will be published as a part of that catalogue.
