Ante el eclipse. Arqueologías del arte en México

"Before the Eclipse": 60+ artists who explored Mexico's pre-Hispanic past, land and popular culture between 1981 and 1991.
Museoaren webguneaDuring the total eclipse of 1991, Juan José Gurrola staged a "piro-acción", a fire performance, on the esplanade outside this museum. His sketch and a photo of it are in a show that runs from 1981, when the Tamayo opened, to that eclipse. If your parents watched it through an old X-ray, Gurrola's version involved more fire.
In between are over 100 works by 65 artists who lived in the city through economic crisis and the 1985 earthquake: painting, photography, textiles, video and installation, from Francis Alÿs to Lourdes Grobet. Archaeology is the curators' metaphor, and the work keeps returning to the pre-Hispanic past, the land and popular culture. You also run into the museum's own history, propped up by a rebuilt 1987 shoring structure.
Time Out gave it four stars. In Crónica, Eduardo Egea found it "flexible, eclectic and hybrid" but thought it leaned on Tamayo to justify itself. It fills Salas 1 and 2 until 18 October; entry is MXN 95, free on Sundays.

Ez joan, baldin eta
You want a rigorous history of the decade: Crónica's critic found it eclectic and wants a stricter follow-up.
