INAH confirmed that no archaeological piece was affected by Pepx Romero's kisses

Although the Institute acknowledged the reason for the Queer artist's protest, it indicated that it will determine legal actions against him

The National Institute of Anthropology and History (INAH) confirmed this Wednesday afternoon that no archaeological piece in the National Museum of Anthropology (MNA) was damaged or affected after the performance of the artist Pepx Romero.

Through a statement, the Institute noted that all the pieces kissed and licked by the theater director of Queer Culture, in protest against the trafficking of heritage goods and auctions of them abroad, have already been reviewed by specialists.

While INAH expressed its respect for the creative freedom of Pepx Romero, as well as thanks for raising its voice in the face of the illegal sale of pre-Hispanic pieces, it said it did not agree to any conduct that violates the regulations established in the country's cultural venues, so it will determine the legal actions to be taken.

In this regard, he stressed that at no time was a request received from the artist to carry out these recordings and, therefore, there is no authorization in this regard.
