context_page_description: Tepito Arte Acá is a cultural organization that was a forerunner of the Los Grupos artistic movement of the 1970s in Mexico City. It is one of very few groups of that time to survive to this day. It is dedicated to a number of cultural activities, but historically it has been important for the murals that they painted in the Tepito neighborhood of Mexico City.
context_section_description: Tepito is a barrio located in Colonia Morelos in the Cuauhtémoc borough of Mexico City. Most of the neighborhood is taken up by the colorful tianguis, a traditional open-air market. Tepito's economy has been linked to the tianguis since pre-Hispanic times. Estimates of the area's population may vary from 38,000 to 120,000 residents, with an estimated 10,000 more who come in during the day to sell in the market. It is famously known as the "Barrio Bravo" or fierce neighborhood. Tepito is home to a subculture that has attracted the attention of academics and artists. Art exhibitions have been based on Tepito and the area boasts a number of literary journals to which residents contribute.
