September 19, 2021 marked the centennial of the First National Exhibition of Popular Arts held in Mexico. One hundred years of complex and complicated academic work and institutional practice on the handcrafted object and those who create it. One hundred years that went practically unnoticed; oblivion caused, perhaps, because both the academic work and the discourse of the Mexican State that recognizes, since then, the handcrafted object as an element of national identity, as part of the country's cultural heritage and the economic sustenance of thousands of families in the countryside and cities, contrasts drastically with its real development and the living conditions of those who create handcrafted objects.
