Description: This retrospective is based on the Mexican art collective movement "Grupo Proceso Pentágono", which emerged in the late 1960's and was characterized by giving force to the artistic groups, with emphasis on artistic experimentation and a critique of the social context. Some of the artists who participated in this movement, and whose work makes up this exhibition are Felipe Ehrenberg, Carlos Finck, José Antonio Hernández Amezcua, Víctor Muñoz, Carlos Aguirre, Miguel Ehrenberg, Lourdes Grobet, Rowena Morales and Rafael Doniz. During social movements in Latin America, the commitments adopted by emerging artists were completely social and in the second instance, politicians. Such was the case of Pentagon process group, a group set up to create art through a network of national and international work. Trying to determine those of the nationalist movement in and out of institutional spaces, the group generated a proposal of creation based on civil society, thus building a new conceptual language, and innovating in the art object and the installation, expressions still not consolidated in Mexico. "The first retrospective exhibition of the production and archive of a collective that was characterized by maintaining a critical, analytical and argumentative stance in the face of State policy. Through the interweaving of documentary material and artistic works that form part of the museographer proposition, the exhibition accounts for more than 32 pieces created between 1969 and 2015."--Verso Cover.
