The city of Puebla—located in the central highlands of Mexico—is particularly well-known for its street layout and predominantly Baroque architecture. A UNESCO World Heritage site since 1987, the city hosts a broad cultural dynamic centered on the preservation of its built heritage and its appreciation from a distance, as if it were a museum piece. Consequently, in our daily commutes, we notice the monumentality of its facades, often overlooking the fact that behind the large wooden doors lies what we have called "the heart of the Poblano house."

Tecnológico de Monterrey and the Embassy of France present the symposium "The Future of Cities: Crossing Perspectives."

Following ten years of research, the book “A música e os músicos em Tempos de Intolerância: o Holocausto” (Music and Musicians in Times of Intolerance: The Holocaust), published by Rio Books and written by historian Silvia Lerner, will be launched this October in three capital cities: São Paulo, Curitiba, and Rio de Janeiro. This unprecedented publication—the first of its kind in Brazil—examines the music produced during the Holocaust in ghettos, concentration camps, extermination camps, and the forests where Jewish partisans hid.

Next Saturday, October 28, at 7:00 PM, a conversation will be held between curator Fernanda Lopes and artists Andro Silva, Atelier Sanitário (Daniel Murgel and Leandro Barboza), Hugo Houayek, Natália Quinderé (Seis gentes dançam no museu), and Rafael Alonso at Galeria Athena. The event is part of the exhibition "O que há de música em você," which has just been extended until December 2, 2023, due to popular demand. The conversation is free and open to the public.
