The project committee selected María Elena Ortiz, a PuertoRican curator residing in Mexico City, to mount an exhibition of her projectWhere ever you roam.Where ever you roam is an exhibition that not only investigates the artifacts used todemand democratic alternatives in the public arena, but also evokes reflection on theprotesting strategies of our times. Pushing the boundaries of political correctness andsocial protocol, the artworks in the exhibition reconsider political norms to question theirrelevance as a tool for social emancipation. Where ever you roam presents the work ofJosé Carlos Martinant (Peru), Joaquín Segura (Mexico), Jason Mena (Puerto Rico) andJuan Caloca (Mexico). These artists focus their artistic investigations on the archeologyof a public demonstration as a normative system and the creative outlets necessary toignite the cry of an opposing voice.IMAGE CREDITS: JOSE CARLOS MARTINAT (PERU, B. 1974)CINE MOLAAin Collaboration with Hola Mexico presents: Felix: Selffictionsof a Smuggler / Felix: Autoficciones de un traficanteTHURSDAY, NOVEMBER 8 @ 8:00PMMembers: Free | Non-Members: $10Felix is a home-movie actor and human trafficker in Tijuana.
