The art intervention, a mode of conceptualism, served to circumvent traditional spaces for the display of art and to destabilize and expose the hierarchies or power structures that shaped the art world and society at large. Artists began to explore alternative definitions of the artist and the art object as early as 1961, when progenitors of conceptualism such as Mathias Goeritz, José Luis Cuevas, and Alejandro Jodorowsky produced art interventions in galleries, theaters, art schools, museums, and public spaces. These new interventionist practices were forged within the context of local and global social revolutions. In Mexico, widespread repression and censorship at the hands of the state culminated in the 1968 student and workers’ movements. Tragically marked by the government- initiated massacre of peaceful demonstrators in Tlatelolco, the movement accelerated incidents of protest, police and military brutality, and a crisis within cultural institutions. Though the Mexican government presented itself as aligned with socialist causes, the 1970s saw an unofficial dirty war launched against perceived radicals to quash the momentum activists had gained in 1968. This heated environment found artists in a continuing struggle to find new forms of expression as well as spaces for the display of their work. Many turned to collectivization and conceptualist tactics in what has come to be called the movimiento de los grupos or the “Group Movement” that flourished between 1973 and 1979. iv Despite the proliferation of art interventions across the two decades (and within similar socio-political conditions) connections between the 1960s generation and the Grupos of the 1970s have not been adequately addressed. Accordingly, this project examines the ways in which strategies of intervention served as a form of resistance for both generations. I argue that the intervention served as a primary tool in the renegotiation of the social role of art and the artist. As a vehicle of conceptualism, interventionist practice served to introduce institutional critique, new media and mass communication, as well as performative actions as artistic modes, irreversibly altering the cultural landscape of Mexico. v ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation would not have been possible without the guidance of my adviser, Dr. Katherine Manthorne. I am truly grateful for her mentorship, support, and generosity throughout this process. I am also thankful to my readers, Dr. Anna Indych-López, Dr. Edward Sullivan, and Dr. Mona Hadler, for their careful readings and thoughtful feedback. Their insights have enriched my project tremendously. I would like to extend my gratitude to Art History Department of the Graduate Center, CUNY, and in particular the Executive Officers that have assisted me in the program: Dr. Patricia Mainardi, Dr. Kevin Murphy, Dr. Claire Bishop, and Dr. Rachel Kousser. This project would not have been possible without the support of the Fulbright-García Robles award, which facilitated my research in Mexico City. My research was also assisted by the generous travel grants awarded by the Graduate Center and by the tremendous collections and staff of the Centro de Documentación Arkheia, Museo Universitario Arte Contemporáneo, UNAM. Your assistance has been invaluable. I am indebted to the numerous colleagues and mentors who have helped to shape this project: Dr. Deborah Cullen, Elvis Fuentes, Dr. Karen Cordero at the Universidad Iberoamerican, as well Pilar García and Sol Henaro of MUAC, Dr. Jennifer Boles, Cristóbal Andres Jacome, Dr. George Flaherty, Gabriela Aceves-Sepúlveda, Dr. Susana Vargas Cervantes, Julio García Murillo, Regina Tattersfield, and “toda la banda” from Centro de la Imagén. I would also like to extended very warm thanks to the many artists that were more than generous in sharing their ideas and reflections. This project would have been impossible without them. I am eternally grateful to the friends that have helped to guide me through this project and offered a hand when needed, I could not have accomplished this without you: James Oles, vi Jennifer Josten, my Graduate Center sisters (Jennifer Favorite, Marisa Lerer, Renee McGarry, Andrea Ortuño, and María Laura Steverlynck), Gina Dawson, Gigi Ng, Nikki Arendt, Alison Hearst, Andrea Karnes, Thomas Glassford, Suzanne Villiger, and mis hermanos from the Red Treehouse (especially Jorge Silva). A special thanks to Jacobo Fernández for his seemingly infinite patience and encouragement. I cannot express enough gratitude for the support of my beloved family: Catherine, Robert, and West Decker, and last, but never least: Lee, Mr. Drummond, Peanut, Louie, and Carol. vii CONTENTS ABSTRACT. .i ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS. iii LIST OF ILLUSTRATIONS . .vi INTRODUCTION . 1 Literature Chapter Summaries Chapter 1.

    ALEJANDRO JODOROWSKY RÉTROSPECTIVE 30 SEPTEMBRE – 9 OCTOBRE La Montagne sacrée 56 CINÉMA SANS FIN Artiste protéiforme et iconoclaste, Jodorowsky aura passé sa vie à transgresser les règles de l’art pour trouver l’illumination. Ses expérimentations poétiques le mènent du théâtre d’avant-garde au cinéma underground et psychédélique, de la bande-dessinée de science-fiction à la cartomancie. Il croise sur sa route aussi bien les surréalistes, que Moebius et le mime Marceau, Topor et Arrabal. Chacun de ses films est une expérience spirituelle et sensorielle unique : western baroque (El Topo), drame psychanalytique (Santa Sangre), SF métaphysique (La Montagne sacrée), fantasy utopique (Dune)... L’œuvre anticonformiste, fascinante et visuellement renversante d’un gourou-cinéaste. À travers ses films mais aussi ses scénarios de bande dessinée (en particulier pour Mœbius) ou sa pratique du tarot, Jodorowsky est considéré comme un mystique, voir un mage. Il est vrai que la majorité de ses films retracent des parcours initiatiques : celui de Fando et Lis vers la cité mythique de Tar à travers un paysage d’apoca- JODOROWSKY ALEJANDRO lypse, celui des neuf élus gravissant la montagne sacrée, celui d’El Topo, le pisto- lero devenu un idiot visionnaire, ou celui de Jaime dans La Danza de la realidad qui traverse les cercles du communisme, du fascisme et du christianisme. L’initiation ne vise cependant qu’à un retour au monde matériel : il faut toujours quitter la grotte, redescendre de la montagne, brûler ses idoles et combattre ses propres rêves de puissance. Pour le cinéaste qui vagabonda entre le Chili, la France et le Mexique, il importe de saisir la vie dans toute sa chair, surtout si elle est crue et sanglante, et c’est dans des espaces à ciel ouvert qu’il fait naître ses visions.

Founded in 1546 after the discovery of a rich silver lode, Zacatecas reached the height of its affluence in the 16th and 17th centuries. The city is centered on the Plaza de Armas, a small open square surrounded by a cathedral and the governor's palace. The cathedral, built between 1730 and 1760, is notable for its striking architecture, where European and indigenous decorative elements are found side by side. There are also several museums in town, including the Francisco Goitia Museum, exhibiting his unique collection of sculptures and paintings, the Pedro Coronel Museum, featuring diverse works of Mexican art, and the Rafael Coronel Museum with its extensive exhibit of exotic masks and figurines. Zacatecas has magnificent views, especially in the evening when thousands of lights illuminate the city center. In 1993, UNESCO declared the city of Zacatecas a “cultural treasure of humanity.” The College The Instituto Tecnologico de Estudios Superiores de Monterrey (www.zac.itesm.mx) also known as the Tecnologico de Monterrey (TEC), was founded in 1943 by a group of entrepreneurs headed by Don Eugenio Garza Sada.
