Conceived as a nearly 1-kilometer-long walking route, Incomplete Garden unfolds outdoors in the museum’s Sculptural Garden, the roundel, and the Gamboa Room. The exhibition makes normally invisible phenomena perceptible: cosmic radiation modulates the intensity of a rotating spotlight; thermal energy disperses in projected particles; thousands of bulbs palpitate to the rhythm of recorded heartbeats; voice messages travel along paths like patterns of sound and light; poems in Mexico’s indigenous languages flow in turbulent digital streams. Enjoy three world premieres and six works unseen in Mexico, all specifically reconfigured for the Museo de Arte Moderno, in direct dialogue with its architecture, historical collection, and the beautiful Bosque de Chapultepec surroundings.

Rafael Lozano-Hemmer (b. 1967, Mexico City) is a digital artist whose work explores participation and surveillance through large-scale installations in museums and public spaces. He was the first artist to represent Mexico at the Venice Biennale with an exhibition at the Van Axel Palazzo in 2007 and has participated in biennials such as Havana, Istanbul, Kochi, Liverpool, Mercosul, New Orleans, Shanghai, Singapore, and Sydney. In 2019, he presented Border Tuner, a project that connected the cities of El Paso, Texas, and Ciudad Juárez, Chihuahua, bringing together tens of thousands of people on both sides of the border. His work is part of collections such as MoMA, Guggenheim, Tate, Reina Sofía, and MUAC, among others.
