Suggestion Box In a invitation to the public to write and deposit ideas or thoughts in a box, collecting anonymous suggestions from all over the world, this time in Mexico City, and sharing them as a collective reflection of the community.

Suggestion Box has traveled to three continents, activated by individuals and groups in their local communities, collecting suggestions from tens of thousands of people, in several languages. In 2005, Chronicle Books published a compilation of suggestions made in New York City entitled Suggestion.

This is a cardboard box painted white with the word “SUGGESTION” (SUGERENCIA) printed in black letters on all four sides, there is a small slit in the upper part of the box. The box is carried along with clipboard, paper and pens. We ask the public to make suggestions, any ideas or thoughts, of any kind, without any limitations or guidelines, just the invitation of the box to participate: Come up and make your suggestion!

Once you fill the boxes with all the suggestions, they will be compiled and many of them published on ArteAbierto's social networks as anonymous thoughts.

For this action, people in different parts of Mexico City were asked to write down a suggestion, idea or thought of any kind on a sheet, and to deposit it in a small slit included in a transportable cardboard box. Once the boxes were filled with suggestions, they were compiled and published on Arte Abierto's social networks as anonymous thoughts.

The boxes were opened with Otis Kriegel, co-founder of Illegal Art, in Arte Abierto.
