Estudio Nómade

Estudio Nómade is a project 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, where participants can discover other ways of creating and put it into everyday practice.

Within the development of the workshops, dynamics of integration, participation and collaboration are established. Where creative capacity and sensitivity stand out as something natural in each one of us.

For the last Derive of the year and on the occasion of the presentation of the GuggenSITO at Múltiple, Eder Castillo will talk to us about his production and connection processes along with Arturo Ortiz Struck, as well as the strategies applied in this and in each of his works and projects that he has been carrying out to date.

Eder Castillo is an artist who hybridizes the cultural institution and the artistic object to create exceptional spaces, spaces different from those produced by the current city, and also different from those that make up museums and art centers. Through different experiences, he emphasizes performativity and interactivity. His work has focused on the generation of spaces and aesthetic moments that allow the encounter and interaction between non-traditional audiences and art.

We resume Derives of Art and Architecture in 2025, follow our social networks for more information.

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 Derives 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.

Mexico City’s Zona Rosa is, above all, an imaginary.That is, on a diffuse perimeter of Colonia Juárez, a series of emotions, ideas, experiences and anxieties are projected. Perhaps, this cloud of meanings began to take form in the 1920s, but it was in the 1960s when it became self-aware. A group of artists, intellectuals, journalists and more reflected on what they saw, did, prophesied and sentenced there. They even gave it the name: Zona Rosa. And this imaginary managed to expand and transcend the following generations.

The Zona Rosa is a space for recreation, transgressions, cosmopolitan life and nostalgia; it is a territory that feels contradictory since its christening: “neither red nor white, but pink, precisely pink.” In our next Derive we will analyze those 1960s and that endearing space that was both decadent and avant-garde.

José Ignacio Lanzagorta
He has a PhD in Social Sciences from El Colegio de México. His main research topic is the urban cultural history of Mexico City and he teaches different history subjects at ITAM, the Universidad del Claustro de Sor Juana and Centro programs.
