Description
Conceived as a nearly 1-kilometer-long walking route, Incomplete Garden unfolds outdoors in the museum’s Sculptural Garden, the roundel, and the Gamboa Room. The exhibition makes normally invisible phenomena perceptible: cosmic radiation modulates the intensity of a rotating spotlight; thermal energy disperses in projected particles; thousands of bulbs palpitate to the rhythm of recorded heartbeats; voice messages travel along paths like patterns of sound and light; poems in Mexico’s indigenous languages flow in turbulent digital streams. Enjoy three world premieres and six works unseen in Mexico, all specifically reconfigured for the Museo de Arte Moderno, in direct dialogue with its architecture, historical collection, and the beautiful Bosque de Chapultepec surroundings.
