I've been thinking I'd like to take a few classes dealing with Mexican art, especially art of the Colonial period and contemporary folk art. Where would be a good place to do this in Mexico City? I have a good background in these areas, so I could handle material on a somewhat advanced level.

Thanks in advance for any suggestions offered!

The only place that I am familiar with would be UNAM. Perhaps you could also check some of the local museums and see if they have advertise any programs, of if they could help to suggest ones of interest.

Casa Llamm also has art history classes. Also check out some of the museum bulletin boards for notices.

I've found something at the UNAM that looks interesting: a diplomado called La vida cotidiana en M�xico a trav�s del arte offered through the CEC, the Centro de Ense�anza para Extranjeros.

Here�s the link in case anyone's interested:
