Mexico City - Art & Exploration Mexico City - Art & Exploration Day 1: Thursday, January 16, 2020 — Depart USA for Mexico City, Mexico Arrive in Mexico City and head to the hotel to drop off your bags. Afternoon Street Food Tasting Tour Dinner at Mercado de Coyoacán Day 2: Friday, January 17, 2020 — Frida Kahlo Museum and Museo Casa Estudio After breakfast, we’ll head out to the Frida Kahlo Museum for a guided tour. Afterwards, we’ll explore the southern neighborhood of Coyoacán. This cute neighborhood is worth at least a day of your time to fully explore. Whether you’re a fan of Frida Kahlo, art in general or even just bustling plazas, these quirky, artistic barrios is an essential visit. Don’t miss the coffee from Café El Jarocho, or people watching in the central plaza, Plaza Hidalgo. Lunch and dinner at leisure. Day 3: Saturday, January 18, 2020 — Kurimanzutto, MUAC and Espacio Escultórico, and Proyectos Monclova Kurimanzutto This stand-out of Mexico City’s booming contemporary art gallery scene (which is mainly centered around the Roma, San Miguel Chapultepec and San Rafael neighborhoods) is Kurimanzutto. Minimalism dominates the interior, which features an ever-changing roster of international and local contemporary artists at the top of their game. Insider Tip: This is the gallery that represents Gabriel Orozco, so make sure to head there if you’re a fan of his work. MUAC and Espacio Escultórico A highly recommended art destination by industry insiders, UNAM’s MUAC (Museo Universitario de Arte Contempóraneo) is the perfect place to head for a comprehensive peek into the world of modern art. If that weren’t enough, its location near the Ciudad Universitaria is also beneficial, as you can pop over to the excellent Espacio Escultórico while you’re in the vicinity. Insider Tip: The Espacio Escultórico has unconventionally early closing times for a Mexico City venue, so keep that in mind to ensure entry. Another of the top contemporary display spaces in the city, Proyectos Monclova has exhibited artists such as Marie Lund and Eduardo Terrazas, a Mexico local. For a mixture of international and national artists, this is another solid bet if you have limited time in the city. Insider Tip: While you’re in the area, consider visiting nearby Galería Casa Lamm and perhaps even Garash Galería. Street Art Colonia Roma After contemporary art, Mexico City is arguably best known for its vibrant urban murals that are often political and always exceptional. If you’re looking to hunt down some of the best examples, you could do worse than heading to Colonia Roma and wandering down Calle Zacatecas or scoping out La Romita. Here you can see pieces by numerous up-and-coming artists, like Sofia Castellanos. Insider Tip: Follow the Street Art Chilango Instagram account to get an up-to-date idea of where to see the coolest street art. Galería Casa Lamm As well as being one of the best galleries to check out in the capital, Galería Casa Lamm (which can be found situated in the heart of Colonia Roma) also boasts a perfectly charming central courtyard café where you can enjoy a brief break in your busy day of exploring the artistic attractions. Insider Tip: They’re known for having pieces of art on sale here, alongside espressos, so go with an open mind and perhaps even an open wallet. We will visit Bazaar Sábado and Bazaar del Sábado for shopping before heading to Bucardón for drinks. Day 4: Sunday, January 19, 2020 — Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Reserve Today, we’ll head out of the city and go to one of the most magical places on earth, the site of the Monarch migration. Each year, close to 20 million Monarch Butterflies begin their 3,000 miles long journey from Canada and USA to Mexico creating one of nature’s most fascinating natural migrations. Dinner at Pujol.

    5 Groundwater and Hydraulic Opulence in the Late Nineteenth Century “Well, in our country,” said Alice, still panting a little, “you’d generally get to somewhere else—if you ran very fast for a long time, as we’ve been doing.” “A slow sort of country!” said the Queen. “Now, here, you see, it takes all the running you can do, to keep in the same place. If you want to get somewhere else, you must run at least twice as fast as that!” —Lewis Carroll, Through the Looking Glass In the second half of the nineteenth century artesian wells tapped into ground- water, ending centuries of water scarcity and greatly expanding access to baths in Mexico City. The individualized immersion bath (placer) once offered to wealthier, more European clients was now available to almost everybody. Many of the down- town bathhouses that served humble city dwellers shuttered their temazcales and replaced them with low-cost wooden placeres grouped together in a shared room.1 These humble bathhouses charged for each bucket of hot water, but usually pro- vided all the cold water a client wished, and they used much more water for their wooden placeres than they had for the temazcales that preceded them. At the same time as the placer was being adopted by the masses in the old bathhouses of the city center, new and exclusive bathing facilities were sprouting up on the western side of the city along the Paseo de la Reforma that offered both social and individ- ual contacts with great volumes of water in a variety of forms including swimming pools, tubs, steam rooms, and showers.2 Bathers in both new and old bathhouses luxuriated in an unprecedented hydraulic opulence provided by seemingly unlim- ited groundwater from artesian wells.

Founded December 30, 1902, it was the first residential area of the twentieth Tcentury. The neighborhood was developed by the Chapul tepec Avenue Land Company, headed up by English businessman Eduardo Walter Orrin, founder of the famous Orrin Circus. The land the new neighborhood was to be built on bordered a little pre-Hispanic town called Azta calco, which means “in the house of the herons.” In the eighteenth century, this town was re-baptized Romita (“little Rome”) be cause it had a beautiful tree-lined avenue (Chapultepec Avenue) that went all the way to the Chapultepec forest, which was very similar to one that existed in Rome, Italy. When the land for the new development was laid out, it took the name of the old town. Around 1530, the Santa María de la Nati vidad Church was built in Romita, where Friar Pedro de Gante baptized the local indigenous, and which to this day preserves one of the cruci - fixes sent by Carlos V, an image of Our Lord of Buen Ahorcado and a series of interesting eigh - teenth-century paintings by Antonio Torres.

  • University of Nevada Reno the Culture of the Good Death in Seventeenth-Century Mexico City a Dissertation Submitted in Partial F
    University of Nevada Reno The Culture of the Good Death in Seventeenth-Century Mexico City A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the Requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History by James Courtney Flaks Dr. Linda A Curcio-Nagy/Dissertation Advisor May 2010 THE GRADUATE SCHOOL We recommend that the dissertation prepared under our supervision by JAMES COURTNEY FLAKS entitled "The Culture of the Good Death in Seventeenth-Century Mexico City" be accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Linda A. Curcio-Nagy, Ph.D., Advisor Joseba Zulaika, Ph.D., Committee Member Dennis Dworkin, Ph.D., Committee Member Judith Whitenack, Ph.D., Committee Member Kevin Stevens, Ph.D., Committee Member George Thomas, Ph.D., Graduate School Representative Marsha H. Read, Ph. D., Associate Dean, Graduate School May, 2010 i Abstract This dissertation argues that most of Mexico City’s Seventeenth-century subjects believed in and practiced the Good Death. The culture of the Good Death in seventeenth- century Mexico City shows that their Mexican Catholicism represented a localized religious practice that was completely hispanicized. Death permeated Mexico City’s population base due to cyclical pandemics, seasonal natural disasters, such as inundations, agricultural crises, and the common public health issues concerning garbage in the city’s canals and streets. Most of Mexico City’s subjects often lived short and harsh lives. According to colonial citizens, the beliefs and practices of the Good Death signified the partaking of final sacraments and a courage in facing the end of life where the dying person ultimately liberated his/her soul into the purgatorial afterworld.

  • When It Comes to Museums and Galleries, Bigger Isn't Always Better
    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.
