The Casa del Tunel art museum isn't just any museum celebrating Mexico's contemporary artists. In its previous incarnation, the museum was an actual cross-border tunnel used to smuggled drugs from Mexico into the U.S. The tunnel began in what was once a home and ended across the border in a San Ysidro parking lot. The tunnel has since been sealed and the house turned into a museum run by the Border Council of Arts and Culture "to create a new model at the U.S.-Mexico Border region for sustainable cultural development."

Very interesting.
But for every drug tunnel that gets shut down, two others pop up in its place.

Glad to see the arts intervening!
I couldn't help but to be reminded of Julio Cesar Morales' work that I saw at the Phantom Sightings exhibit at LACMA last year. Necessity breeds genious there is no question, but at what cost?
