The exhibition Carlos Amorales – The Factory showcases the work of Carlos Amorales, one of Mexico’s most important contemporary artists. Spanning 14 museum galleries, the exhibition includes work of various media: spatial works, installations, paintings, drawings, videos, prints, textiles, animations, and sound works. When entering Amorales’ world, you encounter a world of fantastical images and stories that explore the field of tension between the individual and society.
