The Modern Art Museum (MAM) is one of the largest of its kind in Latin America. Its extraordinary collection focuses on the evolution of modern art in Mexico, especially the Mexican School of Painting and the Breakaway Generation.

Located in Chapultepec Forest, the museum consists of two circular buildings with two floors divided into four halls, and a gallery, in addition to a sculpture garden which connects them.

In the Xavier Villaurrutia and Carlos Pellicer halls, visitors can admire the museum’s permanent collection, which include works by Diego Rivera, David Alfaro Siqueiros, José Clemente Orozco, and Frida Kahlo, among others. The other halls are used for temporary exhibitions, which display part of the museum’s collection under different views and themes.

The MAM also plays an important role in the research, collection and dissemination of modern and contemporary art.
