About
Machete is a contemporary art gallery based in Mexico City specialized in Latin American art. In addition to the gallery, we have a back store, a space to showcase works from emergent artists at affordable prices to promote contemporary art among young collectors.
Machete opened its doors in Mexico City in November 2012 with a focus on emerging Latin American art. We represent artists whose creative processes interest us, as we believe that through them they reflect upon their own context and period in time. Our aim is for every artist in our gallery to express themselves through a different voice and formal solution, so that together they may generate an inclusive and plural conversation. Our exhibition program goes beyond simply the shows of the artists we represent. We also work with curators who use our space to exhibit their own projects and artists with whom we collaborate on specific proposals. We also have a special backstore area where we show a selection of works at affordable prices, with the goal of encouraging new collectors.
