 The MFAH presents the first in a series of exhibitions celebrating
the 10th anniversary of the establishment of the museum´s
Latin American art department and International Center for the Arts of the Americas (ICAA). Cosmopolitan Routes: Houston Collects Latin American Art comprises more than 100 masterworks on loan from private holdings in Houston and Latin America, including paintings, works on paper, photography, sculpture, assemblage, installations, and video projections.

Among the many artists represented are Antonio Berni, Gego , Frida Kahlo , Francisco Matto , Hélio Oiticica , Diego Rivera , and Joaquín Torres-García. The exhibition is a tribute to the Founding Members and Latin Maecenas who have supported the museum´s Latin American art initiative and its collecting activities since the department´s inception in 2001.
