The National Museum of the History of Azerbaijan

 


The National Museum of the History of Azerbaijan is proud to host the exhibition “CORAZÓN MIGRANTE” — a powerful collection of works by Mexican and Mexican-American artists.

 
This exhibition, previously showcased in major cities across Mexico and the U.S. (including Los Angeles, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Miami, and New York), now arrives in Baku for the first time! 
 
"CORAZÓN MIGRANTE" features 45 pieces by 26 talented artists, bringing vibrant voices from the Mexican diaspora to Azerbaijan's art scene. The exhibition highlights the dynamic and diverse stories of migration, culture, and identity, and is set to spark new conversations and strengthen intercultural dialogue.

About the Book
"In Starkey’s poems, the miraculous walks arm in arm with the mundane, in language that, at turns, carries notes of liturgical grandeur and captures the music of the colloquial."
— Todd Copeland
