Casa Vecina is a cultural institution that is part of the Mexico City Historical Center Foundation (Fundación del Centro Histórico de la Ciudad de México, AC). It specializes in the production, display, and research of contemporary art. In addition to the conventional exhibition spaces, it works from a “studio” concept: the purpose of its projects is not to exhibit finished art objects, but to show the process that leads the artist to a final product. Exhibitions, installations, and displays are understood as a continuous process of experimentation. Casa Vecina supports resident artists with the funding and infrastructure necessary to develop their research.
