Museo {i}menos is a different kind
of museum without walls, formal attire or admission fees. We pop up
wherever we can and even in some places that we can not. Museo {i}menos
is a work of art. We are an independent arts museum currently
developing mail art and stencil art events, collections and
workshops (but many more independent arts exist and need to be
included). Our goal is to make art public. It is only through active
participation that art becomes truly public.
Museo {i}menos places great importance on free expression and
accessible/public arts (arts practiced with limited means) as well
as independent news/media. It is by first hand accounts and active
participation that we fully become part of the world in which we
live. Culture belongs to those who work at it and it should never be
left to the whims of a corporate sponsor.
The official inauguration of Museo {i}menos was August 8th,
2006 from the Visual Geographic Center of the Rio Grande Valley and
the bordering Tamaulipan municipalities.
