In 2021, with the support of Del Castillo y Castro Abogados, we relaunched our former Projects section as Proyectos: a two-year program for Mexico-based, commercial and non-commercial organizations dedicated to the curation and exhibition of contemporary art.

In this way, we believe we can make a more measurable, lasting, and significant contribution to the ecosystem upon which the health and relevance of our own organization depends.

Young international galleries are encouraged to apply for our Galerías section.

The call for applications for Proyectos, Generación 2026-27 will be announced in June 2025. Please follow us on Instagram at @mmmmmaterial for the official announcement.
