Museo Dolores Olmeda: http://www.museodoloresolmedo.org.mx/the-museum/
A beautiful site with a small collection of Diego Rivero and Frida Kahlo pieces, folk art and changing exhibits. But the real attraction is the museum itself and the grounds. A peaceful oasis in the middle of chaotic CDMX.
These critters are Xoloitzcuintli, Xolo for short or Mexican Hairless dogs, a breed going back 3500yrs. in mesoamerica. They keep a bunch of them on the grounds of the museum.
This is one of the temporary exhibits at the museum. Sorry, I didn't make note of who the artist was.

This gets interesting at around :50
I'm sorry if I've given the impression that these posts are from current travels. No, I've been home for a month and a half. There's just too much going on sometimes to keep up with the blog so I'm always catching up.
