Public and private collections in Mexican and foreign museums preserve a variety of rebozos from the mid-18th through the 20th centuries. However, it has been complicated to correlate these extant pieces with exact places of production and dates. Other sources such as written accounts and images focus mostly on their social uses, sometimes places of production or sale are merely mentioned yet techniques and designs are the information least dealt with.

  • PEATONALIZACIÓN DE LA CALLE MADERO DEL CENTRO HISTÓRICO DE LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO Análisis Del Cambio En El Ámbito Comercial
    PEATONALIZACIÓN DE LA CALLE MADERO DEL CENTRO HISTÓRICO DE LA CIUDAD DE MÉXICO Análisis del cambio en el ámbito comercial Clara ORTEGA GARCÍA Universidad Autónoma Metropolitana. Unidad Azcapotzalco Directora: Mtra. Ma. del Carmen Bernárdez de la Granja Mail: [email protected] RESUMEN Existe en la Ciudad de México, como en otros lugares, una tendencia que ha protagonizado las revitalizaciones de espacios públicos realizadas en los últimos años, se trata de la peatonalización de calles o avenidas. Dicho tipo de intervención es, definitivamente impactante en cuanto que modifica determinantemente el uso y percepción del espacio. La constante insistencia por la necesidad de revitalizar el Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de México ha provocado, además de una evidente transformación de imagen urbana, otras mutaciones en el espacio urbano, cambios muy evidentes de carácter social, espacial y económico principalmente. Lo que aquí se presenta, es un análisis de éste tipo de intervención, realizada en la calle Francisco I. Madero, arteria vital del centro histórico, que cerró el tránsito vehicular en 2010 para priorizar el acceso exclusivamente peatonal al centro de la ciudad; los impactos generados a partir de éste suceso, principalmente en el ámbito comercial. Palabras clave: Centro Histórico, Revitalización, Peatonalización ABSTRACT In Mexico City exists a trend, as in other places, that has played a main role in the revitalization of public spaces in recent years: the pedestrianisation of streets or avenues. Such an intervention has an important impact since it crucially modifies the use and perception of space. Constant insistence for the need to revitalize Mexico City's Historic Center has caused, in addition to a clear transformation of urban image, other important mutations in the urban space, mainly of social, spatial and economic nature.

  • Tlatelolco 1968 Massacre and Poetic Debates on the History of Violence
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by University of Bedfordshire Repository Between the Stone and the Mirror: Tlatelolco 1968 Massacre and Poetic Debates on the History of Violence Victoria Carpenter, York St John University, UK On 2 October 1968, ten days before the Olympic Games began in Mexico, a student demonstration in the Plaza of Three Cultures in the Tlatelolco district of the capital was attacked by the army, paramilitary squads and police. Many were killed, including residents of the apartment blocks in the square. The massacre soon became the subject of many debates, studies, and literary works, whose aim is to keep the event alive in the collective memory and to tell “the truth” about what happened that night. The first poetic responses to the massacre told the story of the Spanish Conquest of the Aztec empire as a metaphor or the Tlatelolco massacre. We shall explore these texts to determine whether the parallels drawn between the Tlatelolco 1968 massacre and the pivotal events in Mexican history reveal the habitual or affective nature of “2 de octubre.” The analysis is based on the theory of posthegemony with a particular focus on the notions of affect and habit, exploring these in the context of Maurice Halbwachs’s theory of collective memory. The essay focuses on the hitherto unexplored theoretical perspective of the posthegemonic nature of a violent event’s symbolic value. 2 1968 was a year of worldwide turmoil and Mexico was no exception. In preparation for the Olympic Games (opening on 12 October in the capital), Mexico found itself amidst student protests and strikes by teachers, university professors, doctors and railroad workers.

  • Logistics Information
    Logistics information Before you arrive in Mexico City Language Spanish is the official language of Mexico. Most hotels and tourist services have English-speaking staff. Electricity Voltage in Mexico is 110V at 60Hz. Plugs are Type B, with flat pins, as the ones used in the USA. We recommend you bring your own adapter, for they are not always available at hotels. Measurement units Mexico utilizes the metric system for distances (km), and Centigrade degrees (ºC) for temperature. Climate The weather is hot and dry in April and May. The rainy season starts in May and lasts until October, with sunny mornings and cloudy, rainy afternoons. It can be cold in the mornings and in the evenings. Average temperature is 16ºC to 27 ºC. Check the weather forecast www.accuweather.com Currency Mexico uses the Mexican peso (MXN). Some resort cities may accept U.S. dollars; however, it's likely that you will be charged more than if you paid in pesos. The exchange rate from dollar to peso fluctuates, but as of the beginning of May, US$1 is approximately equal to MX$18. Where to Exchange Your Money Every major city in Mexico has places to exchange money. You will be charged a commission, but it's generally a lot lower than if you exchanged at an airport, bank or hotel. Use Google Maps to search "cambio" or "exchange" to find places that will perform exchanges. To avoid exchange fees, consider having an account at a U.S. bank with branches in Mexico. Debit Cards and Credit Cards: What You Need to Know In the past, tourists were advised to not even bother with debit cards and credit cards in Mexico, but that's changed.

  • Síntesis Informativa Vespertina
    SÍNTESIS INFORMATIVA VESPERTINA Lunes 14 Junio 2021 VANNESA BOHÓRQUEZ LÓPEZ Museo de la Ciudad de México presenta expo en torno al tatuaje El Museo de la Ciudad de México (MCM) retomó las exposiciones presenciales con la muestra “Body Suit, boceto de tatuaje para cuerpo entero”, que abre espacio a una de las manifestaciones artísticas que se expresa a través de la tinta y la piel. Por múltiples razones, pero en particular por lo que significa que un recinto museístico caracterizado, como otros espacios semejantes, por presentar cierto tipo de arte, se convierta en el recinto donde se da lugar a los artistas del tatuaje, es particularmente un motivo de orgullo para mí y para toda la sociedad”, expresó Vannesa Bohórquez López, titular de la Secretaría de Cultura de la Ciudad de México, al inaugurar la muestra. Acompañada por Edgar Gamboa y Adrián García Solache, promotores culturales, tatuadores y curadores de la exposición, Bohórquez López también destacó que no sólo es la primera vez que el MCM se abre a la experiencia artística del tatuaje, sino probablemente también es la primera vez que un museo lo hace en la ciudad. La exposición “Body Suit, boceto de tatuaje para cuerpo entero”, estará disponible de martes a domingo de 11:00 a 17:00 horas a partir del viernes 11 de junio al domingo 12 de septiembre del presente año.
