Museo de las Artes

TIME : 2016/2/18 9:59:44

To scratch your modernist itch if you’ve overdosed on arte clásico , head three blocks west of Parque Revolución to this museum housed in a French renaissance building that formerly served as the admin buildings for the University of Guadalajara. The highlight is the Paraninfo (auditorium), whose stage backdrop and dome feature large, powerful murals by Orozco. The rest of the space is given over to well-curated temporary exhibitions focusing on contemporary Mexican art.
