Juan O’Gorman y su casa-cueva. Apuntes para una reconstrucción; an exhibition that brings together works by Juan O’Gorman, national and foreign publications, photographs by authors such as Flor Garduño, Pierre Verger and Juan Guzmán, as well as furniture that belonged to Juan O’Gorman, with the intention of offering data that allow us to understand what is happening in his house and his cave-house.

In addition to the above, the exhibition offers the public an important and unprecedented number of certainties provided by the unveiling of the first model ever built of the cave-house. This was done by Senosiain Arquitectos-an international benchmark in organic architecture-and through the exhaustive research that Iván Arellano made public in 2016 on the architectural forms and proportions of the building.
