Where: Palacio de Iturbide, Mexico City, Valley of Mexico
When: 10 June 2023
Unexpectedly I found myself visiting the Iturbide Palace with my mother and niece. I did not know what exhibits they were having, so entering an architectural exhibition was certainly a surprise. A pleasant surprise. I did not know that the architecture firm Sordo Madaleno was behind the construction of places like Antara (Polanco) and Artz (Pedregal), the latter being particularly dear to my heart given its proximity to my house. I did not even know Sordo Madaleno was an architecture firm.
It was a very small exhibit, and I wish I could have taken the guided tour. I did not even know there was a guided tour until I was about to leave. There really should be more people explaining what is going on in the museum. Instead there was only an abundance of staff scolding children for getting too close to the models when they were not even getting that close to the models.
My experience this time left me feeling like I was in a gorgeous place that was too heavily guarded by staff that did not make for a friendly, welcoming experience.
