Book Details: Master craftsman Luis Ac-ac comes from this tradition. Mr. Ac-ac is the town’s proudest product and its modern-day hero. His art and legacy have been immortalized in two compelling platforms—a coffee table book entitled The Life and Works of Luis Ac-ac by Celestino Palma III (arguably the seminal text on the subject), and the Museo Ac-ac, which was just inaugurated on January 31, 2018. Both commemorate the life and times of the craftsman, and trace his “sculptural tree” or artistic lineage to the late 1770’s, which was when Paete came into history as a carvers’ town.
