The Museo is aware that its activities encompass a broad and highly diverse array of institutions and cultural agents, which is why, along with its own lines of research and programming, it also welcomes and supports activities put forward or devised by other institutions, thus giving visibility to independent spaces and collaborating with voices outside art circles. In its related activities, the Museo adopts an approach that differs from its usual programme, with learning, intersecting disciplines and cooperation between institutions the key notions in its development. Therefore, it looks to strengthen other initiatives and help to establish a pluralistic and diverse cultural sphere.

Is it possible to (re)think Latin America?
Five hundred years into the invention of America, and two hundred years after the birth of the first Latin American republics, a question appears, like an inescapable shadow, hidden in the very name comprising these countries: Is it possible to think about a thing called Latin America? Is it even possible to think of it as a unit that can be grasped? Evidently, the answer is no. However, the main issue eludes this contradiction inasmuch as the name given to this part of the world calls for general reflections that encompass the whole and also multiple reflections that go further and take into account particular questions relevant to each geographical area.
