art valeria bross amaury vergara guadalajara

Amaury Vergara and Valeria Bross, a prominent collecting couple in Guadalajara, Mexico, have built a collection that reflects their local roots and the growing international resonance of the city's art scene. Vergara, CEO of Omnilife and president of CD Guadalajara, and Bross, a wedding photographer, acquire works through private studio visits and fairs like Zona Maco. Their home features pieces by Mexican contemporary artists such as Adela Goldbard, whose work 'Nochixtlán (III)' memorializes a 2016 protest in Oaxaca. They discuss Guadalajara's distinct, non-competitive artistic environment and its rise as a destination for collectors seeking alternatives to Mexico City.
