Mexico City’s Museo Tamayo has put together a modern art exhibition for the enjoyment of humans and their furry friends.
Artists have always been inspired by the bond between humans and their canine companions.
Now, one Mexican museum wants to bring the art world to dogs themselves.
Mexico City’s Museo Tamayo has put together a modern art exhibition for the enjoyment of humans and their furry friends.
Lorenza Errasti, curatorial assistant for the museum’s collection, said the exhibition is a selection of works from the museum’s collection and was intended for the enjoyment of owners and their dogs alike.
“The readings of the exhibition are based on emotions,” according to Errasti. “And the affectionate relationship that exists between an owner and their dog is always there, and even more so now that we open this space for that.”
The exhibition, #ArteyPerros (“Art and Dogs”) includes pieces by Haris Epaminonda, Max Ernst, Mathias Goeritz, Pierre Huyghe, Danh Vo and Mario Garcia Torres as well as a poem by Luis Felipe Fabre. It is the exhibition’s second instalment, with the first held in 2020.
The response to the initiative so far has been positive, as many people enjoyed the chance to appreciate the artwork along with their furry friends.
“I like to take my dog everywhere,” said Mila Cohen, a sixth-grade student, near a Max Ernst painting.
“It would be incredible if there were more spaces like this, with art, where we could spend time with our dogs,” noted Manu Echeverria, a photographer.

Once upon a time, in a cozy little house, a baby boy named Lucas lived with his family. They had a lively, affectionate golden retriever named Max, who had been a part of the family since Lucas was born.
From the moment Lucas could crawl, he and Max became inseparable companions. Max seemed to understand that Lucas was a delicate little friend, and he always watched over him with a gentle and watchful eye.
As Lucas grew older, so did his curiosity about the world around him. One sunny morning, as the family enjoyed breakfast, Lucas noticed a butterfly fluttering outside the window. Intrigued, he pointed at it, making excited sounds. Max, always eager to be a part of Lucas’s adventures, bounded to the window and wagged his tail in delight.
The little explorer within Lucas took over, and he decided to follow the butterfly’s flight. He crawled towards the back door, and Max followed close behind. Giggles filled the air as Lucas made his way to the backyard, where the butterfly landed on a colorful flower.
Curious about the newfound discovery, Lucas reached out to touch the delicate insect. Max sat down next to him, as if offering moral support. The butterfly gracefully took off again, and Lucas laughed with delight, clapping his tiny hands.
As days turned into weeks, Lucas and Max continued to explore the wonders of nature together. They splashed in puddles after rainstorms, rolled in the grass, and played fetch in the yard. Max patiently fetched the ball, even when Lucas’s throws were more like gentle tosses.
As Lucas started taking his first steps, Max became his loyal walking partner. He would walk beside Lucas, ensuring the little boy’s balance and providing him with a sense of security. If Lucas stumbled, Max would nuzzle him, as if reassuring him that everything would be alright.
As the years passed, their bond only grew stronger. Lucas and Max grew up side by side, sharing countless adventures and tender moments. Max was not just a dog to Lucas but a true and devoted friend.
Even as Lucas became more independent and started school, he always looked forward to coming home to Max. They still had their evening playtime, and Max remained a source of comfort during any challenging days.
In the end, Max was not just a pet; he was family. He had witnessed Lucas’s first steps, first words, and many first experiences. Their unbreakable connection showed that the love between a baby and a dog could transcend time and create beautiful memories that would last a lifetime.
And so, the little explorer and the loyal pup lived happily ever after, cherishing their friendship and the love they shared in their hearts forever.
