As part of the cultural program for Art Week and as a response to the pandemic crisis, a new space has opened its doors in Mexico City to reimagine our current situation and rethink our relationship with public space and the Chapultepec Forest. From the roots of change generated by this crisis emerged the opportunity to recover and repurpose the iconic building known as "Restaurante Lago"—inaugurated on October 24, 1964, and designed by architect Alfonso Ramírez Ponce—giving it a new purpose: "to transform the private into public, the exclusive into inclusive, the social into cultural. To peel back the layers of history and return the present to its origin, rediscovering an icon of 1960s modern architecture."
