Fine art is a real bargain in Cancún, with styles and prices to suit every taste and budget. The more famous artists, such as Sergio Bustamante, are carried by galleries and stores that advertise in the principal guides.
Plaza Kukulcán has the largest general selection of art, with at least two formal art galleries and—perhaps more interesting—many informal spaces in open public areas in which local artists sell their works direct to shoppers. The best time to meet the artists is in the evening. Another recommended gallery is Renato Dorfman's, on La Isla Shooping Mall. This local artist specializes in Mayan art and natural concepts.

La Casa de la Cultura in downtown Cancún, behind Wal-Mart often has exhibitions of local artists and is a must visit for serious collectors.
