It is a self-taught collective made up of Darío Canul, Cosijoesa Cernas and Eleazar Machucho, who work within a Zapotec community on a self-critique of identity and tradition. The points of departure for their work are street-level intervention, and an investigation of the iconography of violence and the interaction between folklore, tourism, social protest, and migration. They participated in the Clínicas de Especialización en Arte Contemporáneo (ceaco) at La Curtiduría: Espacio Contemporáneo para las Artes, an independent cultural space founded in 2006. Their production encompasses a variety of media, from the easel and mural painting to graphic art, object art, video, and sound intervention. Artists: Tlacolulokos Authors: Ceclilia Delgado Masse, Amanda de la Garza, Mónica Villegas, Tlacolulokos Editors: muac-unam with the support of Museo Amparo, Puebla, México Editorial Coordinator: Ekaterina Alvarez Romero Language: Spanish and English First edition, 2014 Extension: 47 pages Format: 8.66 in x 6.3 in MSRP: $5.95 USD ISBN: 978-607-02-5505-2 Target: University community, academics and interested public in contemporary art. The South Outdoors is a curatorial program of young artists, the starting point of which is the idea of the interstice as a fissure that mediates between two parts of a single body. It operates out of the possibility of linking the inside and outside of the museum, and thereby considers artistic interventions to happen on terraces, patios, and hallways. The cycle integrates four young artists—from Mexico and abroad—who generate a reflection on the edges of the visual, under the dialectical anchor between the visible and the invisible in museum spaces. They start off with an open question, which serves as a trigger for the projects to be carried out: how, in contemporary art practice, is it possible that this bordering, residual condition take place? With this initiative, the Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo seeks to generate a politics of visibility and inclusion of emergent cultural production, with the aim of positing new flows of exchange between local and external scenes.
