The opening of Millree Hughes’ and I’s show ‘Involuntary México’ with and by the visionary Méxican artist curator, Aldo Flores of Salon Des Aztecas, opened on Saturday. It sees the Metro Hidalgo Station being transformed into one of the biggest public art galleries in the world whilst still being a working metro station. Millree was there and reports that the opening was exciting with the Méxican people and media embracing our concept of ‘Involuntary Art’ .. things that aren’t art but might be mistaken for art as we wander around in the gallery of the street, the mall, the laundromat…

“THE GALLERY OF THE STREET IS OPEN”

so too the gallery Of the subway, the Metro…

“BENEATH THE PAVEMENT THE GALLERY”

The opening was covered live during prime time television news and had received major press coverage in México but .. nowhere else.


México has always embraced new art and ideas from yes within México but also from outside. It is one of the most welcoming places I know.
