Mexico’s Cultural Proposal for Hearing Impaired Visitors



For the first time at Shanghai 2010 Expo, a pavilion is presenting a cultural event exclusively for the hearing impaired.


The “Seña y Verbo” theater company presented the play “¿Quién te entiende?” [Who understands you?] at the Music Hall. Their performance was a huge success, especially for Gong Bo Rong, director of China’s Handicapped Individuals Federation.


The Mexico Pavilion also exhibited Frida Kahlo’s art—she is the most important artist, who lived most of her life with adverse physical conditions.


The Ministry of Foreign Affairs coordinated the events to continue with the cultural agenda until the end of the Expo on October 31.
