A catalog of the Spanish Colonial and Mexican devotional paintings in the collection of Bob and Marya Weil, as exhibited in the Sunderland Gallery of Cathedral Arts Project in Omaha Nebraska, from March through April 2025. Artwork includes paintings on canvas, copper and tin, as well as statues, assemblages and religious ephemera. The period covered by the exhibition is from the late 17th century through the mid 20th century. The catalog also features five scholarly essays that engage and describe the collection and place it in the context of South American history, art, culture and the Catholic faith. Authors include world-renowned scholar Dr. Maya Stanfield-Mazzi from the University of Florida and Dr. Jorge Durand, as well as Dr. Kinga Novak of Bard Early College and Bob Weil. Dr. Stanfield Mazzi is author of several notable studies, including "Object and Apparition: Envisioning the Christian Divine in the Colonial Andes", "Clothing the New World Church: Liturgical Textiles of Spanish America, 1520-1820" and "Collective Creativity and Artistic Agency in Colonial Latin America." Dr. Durand is a professor and researcher at the University of Guadalajara in the Department of Studies on Social Movements (DESMOS-CUCSH). He is co-director, with Douglas S. Massey, of the Mexican Migration Project (since 1987) and the Latin American Migration Project (since 1996), both sponsored by Princeton and Guadalajara Universities. He is an emeritus researcher with the National System of Researchers and a member of the Mexican Academy of Sciences. In addition to editing and compiling this catalogue, Bob Weil is author of works on Internet marketing and technology, as well as the co-author of the best-selling book "The Art of iPhone Photograpy: Creating Great Photos and Art on Your iPhone."
