点评:For a city of 390,000, Zacatecas has a surprisingly rich cultural scene and excellent museums. This is a destination overlooked all too often by foreign tourists. I am in Zacatecas for a visit and though I had been to this museum previously, I was so impressed I wanted to pay a return visit.
There is no doubt Rafael Coronel (d. 2019) was an extraordinarily talented artist. Viewing his works is enjoyable. But for me the real draw to the museum is its extensive collection of masks from throughout the regions of Mexico.
One could easily spend a couple of hours wandering the museum. As I made my way through the mask collection, I was struck by how badly curated they seem to be, now. Haphazard organization and display - of many. Poor lighting - in most areas. I have seen many Mexican mask displays so maybe I am being a bit too critical. I recommend a visit to the museum if you find yourself in Zacatecas - one of Mexico's cultural gems.

翻译:萨卡特卡斯是一座拥有 39 万人口的城市,拥有丰富的文化景观和一流的博物馆。这是一个经常被外国游客忽视的目的地。我来萨卡特卡斯参观,虽然我以前去过这个博物馆,但给我留下了深刻的印象,我想再次参观。
毫无疑问,拉斐尔·科罗内尔(Rafael Coronel,卒于 2019 年)是一位才华横溢的艺术家。看他的作品是一种享受。但对我来说,博物馆真正吸引人的是它收藏了来自墨西哥各地的大量面具。
人们很容易花几个小时在博物馆里闲逛。当我浏览这些面具系列时,我对它们现在的策划多么糟糕感到震惊。随意的组织和展示——很多。大部分区域照明不佳。我看过很多墨西哥面具展示,所以也许我有点太挑剔了。如果您身处墨西哥的文化瑰宝之一萨卡特卡斯,我建议您参观博物馆。
