Vivía en la ciudad de Nueva York Ey comenzaba a conocer a otros poetas y a perfeccionar mi oficio. Había publicado por mi cuenta dos breves poema- rios, había aparecido en dos o tres publicaciones literarias y enfrentado mi primera lectura de poesía en un café.

Se ha utilizado una metodología hermenéutica para construir una taxonomía conceptual nacida de la práctica directa. El diseño de esta herramienta concep- tual-visual permite comprender y comparar la diversidad y complejidad de estas prácticas creativas. No es una propuesta sistemática cerrada, sino que se concibe como un análisis de métodos, configuraciones y propósitos que doten de significado y comprensión a la práctica. Dicha práctica se presenta a través de los proyectos del colectivo Un Mundo Feliz que han sido analizados con el método cualitativo. El trabajo se estructura en seis capítulos en los que se definen los objetivos y la metodología y se propone la fundamentación teórica basada en el análisis de los usos del arte y el diseño desde la perspectiva de la comunicación-visual-crítica como una manifestación de interés social y público.

  • We Didn't Cross the Border, the Border Crossed Us
    “We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us”: Images from the history of artists’ engagement with the U.S.-Mexico frontera By Edward J. McCaughan “We didn’t cross the border, the border crossed us” has long been a rallying cry of the Mexican/Chicano immigrant rights movements in the United States. The statement immediately historicizes the movements’ demands, asserting claims to territory, citizenship rights, and cultural legacy that predate the current boundary between Mexico and the United States. Melanie Cervantes/Dignidad Rebelde. Screen print. 2016. One historical anecdote illustrates the concept. When Mexico lost more than half of its territory to the United States at the end of the Mexican-American War in 1848, the Mexican village of Doña Ana suddenly found itself part of the U.S., in what is now the state of New Mexico. Some of the residents, determined to remain part of Mexico, moved several miles south of the new border and founded the town of Mesilla. A short five years later, the Gadsden Purchase resulted in the border being moved yet further south, and the residents of Mesilla found themselves once again within the boundaries of the expansionist United States. The border crossed them twice. The recently annexed village of Mesilla, New Mexico, 1854, as rendered by Carl Schuchard. In the 170 years since, generations of artists have returned to the themes of the border and the impact of its inconsistent and often arbitrary enforcement on the lives of Mexicans compelled by history to test its capriciousness. A brief look at art produced in different eras reveals how the work of social movements, as well as shifts in U.S.
