Some of Christie's most significant work in Mexico includes the installation of 3DLP rear-projection cubes at the Federal Police Intelligence Center, at PEMEX and at CFE headquarters. In addition, Christie's high-powered DLP projectors were used by the country's leading rental stagers to illuminate the pyramids of Chichen Itza and different historical monuments and buildings in the states of Puebla and Merida. And, more recently, a Christie D4K3560 projector was installed on the largest screen of the Cineteca Nacional.
