This book presents a collection, especially contemporary art, that may seem audacious or, perhaps, a postponed project, since it is the representation of a vision; however, an art collection is, at the same time, a hypothesis and many stories. 12 years after the last revision of the collection of this museum, Cien del MUAC explores its artistic and documentary heritage to share with the public works that are already referents of the collective imagination and thought. With the participation of 96 artists and collectives, we selected key works in the history of contemporary Mexican art, with a variety of genres and formats in a period of a little more than half a century. This catalog also includes recently acquired pieces that strengthen the artistic and cultural heritage of UNAM.
