Vuelo Directo: PMI – MEX

PMI–MEX unfolds at Hacienda Acamilpa as a meeting point between Majorcan and Mexican contemporary art, rooted in a shared landscape of memory, materiality, and artistic exchange. The exhibition brings together a group of artists whose practices engage with territory, identity, and transformation, generating a dialogue shaped by difference, resonance, and mutual influence. Set within the historic grounds of Hacienda Acamilpa in Morelos, the exhibition expands across an intimate and contemplative context, where contemporary artworks coexist with a site marked by centuries of cultural, agricultural, and architectural history. Far from any touristic imagery, the hacienda becomes a space of encounter, where artistic practices are anchored in the present while remaining attentive to inherited narratives. Founded in 1604 by the Colegio de Cristo, Hacienda Acamilpa stands today as a living monument to art, landscape, and the art of living. Its lush gardens and monumental architecture offer a setting in which contemporary creation can unfold in close dialogue with place, time, and material memory. Historically dedicated to sugarcane cultivation and processing, Acamilpa was one of the most productive haciendas in the region, producing approximately 2,400 tons annually and earning international recognition for the quality of its pastry sugar at the Paris Universal Exposition. This legacy of labor, transformation, and exchange resonates with the artistic processes presented in the exhibition. PMI–MEX at Hacienda Acamilpa proposes a space of pause and reflection, where works are experienced not as isolated objects but as part of a wider ecosystem – one that connects geography, history, and contemporary artistic thought within Mexican soil.
