Imaginario matemático (Mathematical imaginarium) is a math gallery in Universum, the museum of sciences of the National Autonomous University of Mexico (UNAM), in Mexico City, Mexico. It was inaugurated on December 8, 2017.

The gallery originated as a spin-off of the IMAGINARY exhibitions that circulated trhough Mexico, as a means to have a permanent exhibition in the country. The name of the gallery (imaginario matemático) refers to that origin. Many images and software (such as SURFER) of IMAGINARY are still present in Imaginario matemático. The gallery combines mathematical concepts with art realizations. Visitors can explore polyhedra, keleidoscopes, tilings, topology, conics, algebra, and numbers exhibits.
