The revolution of the alebrije : popular art and Mexican identity
Overview
If you are interested in knowing the artistic essence of Mexico, go with me on a guided tour where colors, shapes and stories are intertwined to know the Museum of Popular Art and the architectural beauty that inhabits the historic center.
I am Edgar, a certified local guide, and I invite you to discover the creativity of my country beyond the myth and fantasy of the Disney brew. We will relive the end of a nineteenth-century dictatorship that builds eclecticism to the emergence of an international architecture with pre-Hispanic features as a symbol of modern Mexico: revolutionary, creative and deeply proud of its roots.
Each space we will visit is a door to the past and a window into the Mexican soul, this is a tour to understand the aesthetics of 20th century Mexico.
