Inaugurated under the name of Museo de Artes Plásticas, on November 29, 1934, it was the first art museum in Mexico, that is, the first cultural venue dedicated to exhibiting artistic objects for contemplation. Its collection included pieces from the 16th century to the 1934 murals by Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco, as well as a room for Mesoamerican sculpture, another for Mexican prints, and a Museum of Popular Art, which housed the Roberto Montenegro collection. In 1947, taking advantage of the creation of the National Institute of Fine Arts, the museographer and cultural promoter Fernando Gamboa and the painters Julio Castellanos and Julio Prieto modified the project in the National Museum of Plastic Arts.
At the same time, it incorporated a wide panorama of Mexican art, a nourished educational program and a vast publication plan that promoted the national artistic wealth at different levels.

The narration about the origin of the arrival of the Aztecs to the place where they founded their city is divided between a historical and mythical story, this because it was reconstructed from real events that, when transcribed, "transformed" or " they trans-functionalized”, this even before the arrival of the Spaniards, it is enough to remember that the tlatoani Itzcóatl, by defeating the Tepanecas and conquering the city of Azcapotzalco, carried out a process of interpretation of the history of the Mexicas by destroying and burn the old documents in order to write the new history of the origin and arrival of the Mexica in Tenochtitlan, even Hernando de Alvarado Tezozómoc considered that with the conquest of Itzcóatl over Azcapotzalco, Mexico-Tenochtitlan was born.

As such, it can be pointed out that the emergence of
Tenochtitlan began with the migration process of the Chichimeca Aztecs, who
received that name for inhabiting the land of Aztlán, where they worshiped Huitzilopochtli,
a deity that would guide them to a new place.
