Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo
University Cultural Centre, Coyoacán, Mexico
MUAC offers a thoughtful counterpoint to Mexico City’s archaeological collections and historic murals. Its contemporary programme sits within Teodoro González de León’s striking building at the National Autonomous University of Mexico, making the architecture part of the visit. Exhibitions change, so the strongest reason to go should be the current programme rather than an expectation of a fixed sequence of famous works. Allow time for the wider cultural setting and check the latest visiting hours before travelling to the southern campus.
