Flo­renti­no Gutier­rez is one of a new gen­er­a­tion of Zapotec mas­ter weavers who has per­fect­ed the use of ani­line dyes to make some of the most stun­ning col­ors ever seen in Zapotec weav­ings. Many of his works are geo­met­ric vari­a­tions of the saltil­lo dia­mond and mit­la fret. His rev­er­ence for tra­di­tion­al design, while embell­ish­ing it in mod­ern col­or and form, makes this weaver’s works impor­tant and unique. Hon­or­ing his indige­nous her­itage, but cre­at­ing a vital new look exe­cut­ed with the finest of detail make this     demon­stra­tion a spe­cial oppor­tu­ni­ty for all to watch a mas­ter weaver at work.

Starr Inte­ri­ors own­er, Susan­na Starr, has had a close rela­tion­ship with the weaver and his fam­i­ly for more than thir­ty five years. The entire col­lec­tion of his weav­ings will be on spe­cial sale dur­ing the week­end event.
