Saturday, April 27, 2024
Sunday, April 28, 2024

Arte Abierto | 2nd floor | Artz Pedregal
Free | Limited space (Registration 15 minutes before each workshop at Arte Abierto’s box office)
For children between 6 and 11 years old, accompanied by their family

Children will create a cinematic narrative on a crankie box using invisible ink. Based on the I had put it here meme that appears in the Cositas exhibition, we will invite you to speculate stories with the help of some questions such as: What was it that the cat had put there? Who moved it? Where is he? In such a way that it allows them to respond to the meme, clarify the case and get their imagination going.

In Search of the Invisible is a cycle of workshops for kids designed by Estudio Nómade to explore Cositas by Mario García Torres from imagination, play and speculation.

Estudio Nómade

This studio is formed by Elvia González and Carlos Villajuárez who combine their multiple disciplines to generate a space for creation, play, imagination, exchange of ideas, art and speculation. Within the studio they put into practice exercises that combine different disciplines such as visual arts, cinema, theater, literature, illustration and editorial design, in order to achieve a novel and playful space in which participants can discover other ways of creating and take it to life. everyday practice. As part of the development of the workshops, dynamics of integration, participation and collaboration are established to highlight the creative capacity and sensitivity as something natural in each of us.

Estudio Nómade has given workshops at the UNAM Palace of Autonomy, Open Art, Espacio Báltico, Universidad Iberoamericana, Children’s Libraries Working Group of the Official College of Librarians-Documentalists of Catalonia, among others. Likewise, its editorial line has been part of book fairs such as “A book is…” by Arte Abierto, “Fronteras. Independent Publishers Fair” organized by Casa Espiral at the Carrillo Gil Art Museum, “Cultural Book Fair” at the Iberoamerican University, among others.

ART & ARCHITECTURE DERIVES

Pictorial Functionalism: The proposal for plastic integration of Mario Pani and Carlos Mérida.

A conversation with Rodrigo Torres Ramos

The link between urbanism and plastic arts is one of the utopian visions of architectural modernity that is perceived most effectively in the urban space of Mexico City. Important housing, education, health, culture and entertainment venues were the receptacle for interventions—moderate or monumental in size—that explored the concern to integrate art into daily life.

Stated as “plastic integration”, this strategy was used by the team of architect Mario Pani and painter Carlos Mérida to provide the multi-family homes and housing units built between 1949 and 1964 with an environment conducive to the emotional enjoyment of their inhabitants, from the incorporation of painting and sculpture to architectural volumes.

Rodrigo Torres Ramos
Architect from the UNAM Faculty of Architecture (2019), specialized in Museum Project Management from the UNAM Faculty of Architecture (2022). He is a researcher and curator whose work delves into the complex intersections between art and architecture in the context of Mexican modernity, with a particular emphasis on the first half of the 20th century. His academic contributions have found spaces in academic journals such as Bitácora Arquitectura, and he has been a speaker at various national and international forums on architecture and modern art, organized by institutions such as FA-UNAM and CENIDIAP in Mexico, CIAP in Argentina and the International Sculpture Center in the United States. He has been a curator, museographer, head of the education department and guest researcher at public institutions such as the Centro Cultural Universitario Tlatelolco, the Tamayo Museum, the Sala de Arte Público Siqueiros and the Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo Studio Museum. He has brought his expertise to numerous curatorial and museographic projects in private galleries and independent spaces, and is the founder and director of Mirador Tlatelolco, an independent space focused on the research and exhibition of the intersections between art, design and architecture.

Arte Abierto continues with its new public program Derivas de Arte y Arquitectura (Art & Architecture Derives), which seeks to renew our gaze on the architectural legacy of Mexico City. From a series of talks focused on rescuing the parallel stories of emblematic architectural projects and public spaces that have witnessed the variable intersection between art and architecture. In this first stage, the program deals mainly with modern architecture, based on a series of talks given by invited curators, architects, artists and urban planners.

With this program, ways of returning to architecture part of its public, experiential, collective character and close to those of us who inhabit the city are tested, recognizing in it its condition as a living archive. From these talks, circumstances, contexts and anecdotes are revealed that have been part of his sensitive memory and that complement his material memory, a relationship that often escapes documentary narratives and academic accounts.

The objective of the drifts is to generate experiences of spatial rediscovery, which allow us to renew our gaze on the legacy of certain emblematic architectural and artistic works, as well as those that have been forgotten.

The derives will be carried out free of charge on the last Saturday of each month, at 1:00 p.m. with a limited capacity.

Cinemas in Mexico in the 20th century: distant spaces in memory.

A conversation with Alejandro Ochoa Vega and Francisco Haroldo Alfaro Salazar

Movie theaters represent typical 20th century architecture; a century that marked its appearance and also its decline. In modern Mexico they were a response to the technological and scientific developments of a time. With them, a milestone of the new spectacle and a new place to share not only the space, but the feelings and aspirations of modern cities was created. In the beginning, they appeared in spaces such as the adapted hall or the marquee and during their boom, between the 40s and 60s, they were built in all types of formats, from movie palaces to multiplex complexes.

Each new cinema was a new carrier of alternatives and architectural solutions. Their approaches increasingly required multidisciplinary work between engineers, urban planners, technicians, plastic artists—such as Carlos Mérida or Manuel Felguérez—and decorators, who captured colors, textures and styles in the space with all types of furniture and proposals. Cinemas such as Paris, Bella Época, Ópera, El Roble, Latino, Diana, Teresa, Ermita, among many others, whether classical or functionalist in style, played a determining role in the recreation of the modern city and provided an artistic legacy, cultural and architectural to the present day.

Nowadays movie theaters fight for their permanence; their space change as our way of making and watching cinema has also changed.
