  • EXHIBITS an Evolution
    CHAPTER 2 EXHIBITS An Evolution Frances Kruger, Not Finished After All These Years Liz Clancy, and Museums have many important functions, but exhibits are what most Kristine A. Haglund people come to see. In addition to educating and entertaining, exhibits bring visitors in the door, generating revenue that supports Museum operations. More than a century after John F. Campion spoke at the Museum’s opening exercises on July 1, 1908, his observation that “a museum of natural history is never finished” is especially true in the world of exhibits (Fig. 2.1)—and in fact needs to stay true for the Museum to remain relevant (Alton 2000). Times change, expectations change, demographics change, and opportuni- ties change. This chapter is a selective, not-always-chronological look at some of the ways that the Museum’s exhibits have changed with the times, evolving from static displays and passive observation to immersive experi- ences to increased interactivity and active visitor involvement. Starting from a narrow early focus, the Museum went on to embrace the goal of “bringing the world to Denver” and, more recently, to a renewed regional emphasis and a vision of creating a community of critical thinkers who understand the lessons of the past and act as responsible stewards of the future.1 Figure 2.1.

    SECRETARÍA DE CULTURA DIRECCIÓN GENERAL DE PATRIMONIO HISTÓRICO, ARTÍSTICO Y CULTURAL de Porfirio Díaz. La otra sección del terreno que ocupó aquella mansión se empleó para continuar la calle de Edison hasta Rosales. En 1936 se inició la construcción del Hotel Reforma, de Mario Pani, en la esquina con la calle París. Contaba con 545 habitaciones cada una con su baño. Considerado como el primer hotel moderno en la ciudad, contaba con roof garden, el bar Tap Room, el restaurante París, cafetería, el salón Champagne, una tienda llamada Chilpa Men’s Shop, peluquería, florería, farmacia y bar. En suma, todo lo necesario para ser un hotel de primera categoría.78 Durante el gobierno del general Lázaro Cárdenas, Lomas de Chapultepec crecía y se poblaba. Como parte del desarrollo que se experimentaba en la zona, entre 1937 y 1938, se fraccionó otra parte de la Hacienda de los Morales para crear Polanco, tal como se consigna en la placa colocada en la base del obelisco dedicado a Simón Bolívar. El obelisco marca el acceso original al fraccionamiento y con el paso del tiempo se ha convertido en uno de los símbolos de la colonia. Fue colocado en la confluencia de Paseo de la Reforma con las calles Julio Verne y Campos Elíseos. La obra fue proyectada por el arquitecto Enrique Aragón Echegaray —quien fuera autor de otros hitos como el Monumento a Álvaro Obregón y el Monumento a los Niños Héroes—, y del escultor Enrique Guerra, egresado de la Academia de San Carlos.79 La placa del monumento también menciona que el proyecto de lotificación fue diseñado por don José G.

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 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.

  • Title: the Avant-Garde in the Architecture and Visual Arts of Post
    1 Title: The avant-garde in the architecture and visual arts of Post-Revolutionary Mexico Author: Fernando N. Winfield Architecture_media_politics_society. vol. 1, no.3. November 2012 Mexico City / Portrait of an Architect with the City as Background. Painting by Juan O´Gorman (1949). Museum of Modern Art, Mexico. Commenting on an exhibition of contemporary Mexican architecture in Rome in 1957, the polemic and highly influential Italian architectural critic and historian, Bruno Zevi, ridiculed Mexican modernism for combining Pre-Columbian motifs with modern architecture. He referred to it as ‘Mexican Grotesque.’1 Inherent in Zevi’s comments were an attitude towards modern architecture that defined it in primarily material terms; its principle role being one of “spatial and programmatic function.” Despite the weight of this Modernist tendency in the architectural circles of Post-Revolutionary Mexico, we suggest in this paper that Mexican modernism cannot be reduced to such “material” definitions. In the highly charged political context of Mexico in the first half of the twentieth century, modern architecture was perhaps above all else, a tool for propaganda. ARCHITECTURE_MEDIA_POLITICS_SOCIETY Vol. 1, no.3. November 2012 1 2 In this political atmosphere it was undesirable, indeed it was seen as impossible, to separate art, architecture and politics in a way that would be a direct reflection of Modern architecture’s European manifestations. Form was to follow function, but that function was to be communicative as well as spatial and programmatic. One consequence of this “political communicative function” in Mexico was the combination of the “mural tradition” with contemporary architectural design; what Zevi defined as “Mexican Grotesque.” In this paper, we will examine the political context of Post-Revolutionary Mexico and discuss what may be defined as its most iconic building; the Central Library at the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de Mexico.

Esta obra fue comprendida como ejemplo de una arquitectura cuya principal función es LA EMOCIÓN. El arte en general, y naturalmente también la arquitectura, es un reflejo del estado espiritual del hombre en su tiempo. Pero existe la impresión de que el arquitecto moderno, individualizado e intelectual, está exagerando a veces —quizá por haber perdido el contacto estrecho con la comunidad—, al querer destacar demasiado la parte racional de la arquitectura. El resultado es que el hombre del siglo XX se siente aplastado por tanto “funcionalismo”, por tanta lógica y utilidad dentro de la arquitectura moderna.

    When it comes to museums and galleries, bigger isn’t always better. For an insider’s look at the city’s art scene, seek out the alternative exhibition spaces that showcase up-and-coming artists—creating small but thriving communities of local talent. By Julie Schwietert Collazo Photography by Paul Raeside FOUR SEASONS MAGAZINE / ISSUE 2 / 2016 92 93 for the past few years Mexico City has been Discovering and gaining in the thick of a well-publicised art boom. The city is second only to Paris in total number of access to these art spaces museums: more than 150 at last count, though “provides unmatched insight officials admit it’s hard to keep track. And that number, impressive as it may be, represents only into the current generation a fraction of the places where art lovers can of artists and curators in survey the creativity of the capital. Beyond the official museums, there are hundreds Mexico City. more spaces, both formal and informal, where visitors can take part in an art scene that’s as energetic and varied as the city itself. ” Commercial galleries, collaboration centres and workshops allow travellers to glimpse the art world outside the heavily trafficked muse- ums. And for those who want an even closer, ground-level understanding of this world, inti- mate, often appointment-only spaces—some in personal residences—offer an alternative to the more traditional institutions. While many of these spots are well known locally, they’re much less familiar to even the most art-savvy visitors. Discovering and gaining access to such spaces provides unmatched insight into the current generation of artists and curators in Mexico City.
