On October 3, 2025, in Madrid, Spain, the Casa de México Foundation presents the eighth edition of its renowned Día de Muertos altar. This year’s installation, titled Cabaret El Recuerdo, transforms the tradition into a homage to the golden age of Mexican cabaret—a world shaped by the elegance of early 20th-century nightlife and the influence of European, particularly French and German, cabarets. Designed and coordinated by architect and designer Guillermo González, the altar becomes a stage where memory, music, and spirit intertwine. It features three pieces of folk art: catrina vedettes crafted in traditional papier-mâché, a tzompantli made of acrylic skulls, and blown-glass spheres. Each element conjures the presence of souls who once laughed, danced, and lived with passion—reminding us that life, like a cabaret, must be lived singing, dancing, and loving until the final curtain call.
