Docomomo International would like to congratulate the Institute of Aesthetic Research [Instituto de Investigaciones Estéticas] for the 85th anniversary.

The Institute of Aesthetic Research of the National Autonomous University of Mexico, since its foundation, research has been carried out in its installations into the different forms of artistic expression in Mexico; the diversity of studies undertaken by the body of researchers in the fields of criticism, theory and history of art across a horizon that reaches other latitudes. It has thus become a space in which the plastic arts converge with dance, literature, photography, cinema and music.

Every year, through its International Colloquium on Art History, the Institute opens its doors to academic reflection on the history of art. Since 1975, this space has been a meeting point for the voices of both Mexican and foreign researchers.
