Join Alma Allen, Museo Anahuacalli and Kasmin Books at Casa Bosques in Mexico City to celebrate the forthcoming publication Alma Allen: Nunca Solo. The event is free and open to all, taking place on Tuesday, July 11 from at 7–9pm. The event is sponsored by Casa Dragones tequila. Drinks will be served. Please RSVP to the event here.
The hardcover catalogue accompanies the artist’s exhibition at Diego Rivera’s iconic museum in Mexico City, amid its extensive Pre-Columbian collection. With translations in both English and Spanish, this volume delves into Allen’s ongoing engagement with time, form, and hybridity through twenty-six newly commissioned sculptures installed among the volcanic architecture and grounds of the museum.
The publication features over 70 illustrations alongside a long-form interview between the artist and exhibition curator Karla Niño de Rivera, a meditation on site-specificity by world-renowned architect Mauricio Rocha, and an essay surrounding the mythologies and ecological potentials shared across Rivera and Allen’s work by curator and critic Mimi Zeiger.
