"Mexico City's affluent seem willing, possibly as result of the trendiness of contemporary art, to embrace street culture in a way that was probably considered too dangerous, or déclassé, 20 years ago."

When Carlin travels to Mexico City her favorite hangout is (did you guess?) a museum.
She loves the 
And who can blame her?  Some of the most amazing art in the world is housed here.
