CASA DRAGONES REAFFIRMS ITS CONNECTION TO CONTEMPORARY ART DURING MEXICO CITY ART WEEK

Throughout its history, Tequila Casa Dragones has cultivated a close and enduring relationship with contemporary art, understanding artistic creation as an expression of excellence, sensitivity, and cultural vision. This commitment—deeply aligned with Casa Dragones values and its dedication to artisanal processes—was once again reflected during Mexico City Art Week, one of the most significant moments on the city’s cultural calendar.

During the first week of February, Casa Dragones took part in a carefully curated selection of public events and exhibitions, seamlessly integrating into the circuit of museums and galleries that define the contemporary art scene. Among these highlights was the public unveiling of Simone Fattal’s sculpture at Museo Jumex, a presentation that incorporated her work into the institutional space and expanded the dialogue surrounding contemporary sculpture.

Casa Dragones was also present at the public opening of A Trace Beyond the Life of the Body by Carmen Neely at Galería Mariane Ibrahim, as well as the inauguration of El pozo de agua by Oscar Murillo at Kurimanzutto—two exhibitions that engage with some of the most relevant artistic proposals of the week.

This participation extended to the public openings of exhibitions by Marcel Dzama and Leonora Carrington at OMR, reaffirming Casa Dragones’ close relationship with galleries that have played a fundamental role in the development of contemporary art in Mexico and its international projection.

As one of the most significant institutional moments of Mexico City Art Week, Casa Dragones took part in the Museo Tamayo Gala, a public event that underscores the essential role of museums as spaces for preservation, exhibition, and cultural dialogue.

Throughout the week, public spaces such as Café Gaga complemented the artistic circuit, serving as gathering points that extended the Art Week experience beyond exhibition openings and encouraged interaction between art, design, and community.

This approach to art is reflected in the way Casa Dragones has cultivated its ties to the cultural scene. Under the leadership of Bertha González Nieves, CEO and co-founder, Casa Dragones has consistently supported artists, galleries, and cultural institutions, understanding art as a space for rigorous creation, critical thought, and contemporary dialogue. Much like its artisanal process, art is, for Casa Dragones, a practice that requires time, precision, and a long-term vision.

Through its participation during Mexico City Art Week, Casa Dragones invited the public to explore galleries, museums, and exhibition spaces throughout the first week of February, and to be part of one of the city’s most significant cultural celebrations.
