Summary:	A group exhibition that explores the atypical expression of desire. To this end, the curator selected certain pieces that come from the natural body -since there is no desire without a body, and some others that evoke qualities through visual, sound, touch, taste and smell without actually representing it as such, it opens many possibilities for interpretation and reinterpretation of imagination. This series of pieces from various international and Mexican artists seeks to link the public with their deepest thoughts, his feelings hidden behind the secrecy and shame, and express the desire outside their usual conception. Surfaces of desire opens a new door release and provocation that seeks harmony of instinct and reason. 29 pieces including paintings, collages, sculptures, installation art, photography and video from 23 Mexican and international artists such as: Marcela Astorga, Georgina Bringas, Dorothy Cross, Rineke Dijkstra, Karin Dolk, Maria Ezcurra, Angus Fairhurst, Anthony Goicolea, Gabriela Gutierrez, Gary Hill, Graciela Iturbide, Juan Pablo Macas, César Martínez, Ana Mendienta, Erick Meyenberg, Gabriel de la Mora, Christian Siekmeier, Valeska Soares, Wolfgang Tillmans, Franz West and Beatriz Zamora.
