Have you seen Macarena Hernández's 2005 PBS Frontline World video piece entitled The Ballad of Juan Quezada?  I love Macarena's laid back style, and the way this piece saunters through the story of Juan, and the people who SO appreciate his art renaissance, they've written corridos (ballads) about him.

This piece also includes interview shots with Spencer MacCallum, the anthropologist and art historian who found Juan Quezada, and started the museum promotion ball rolling, and who is an occasional commenter on our blog (see COMMENTS link below).

Here is the PBS link:

Also, from the University of Arizona, a great link showing non-wheel traditional pottery construction, using Mata Ortiz pottery in its examples:
