DELIMITATIONS: A SURVEY OF THE 1821 UNITED STATES-MEXICO BORDER

ON VIEW 7/22/2016 THROUGH 11/27/2016 In 2014, artists Marcos Ramírez ERRE and David Taylor set out to trace the historical 1821 border between Mexico and the western territories of the United States. That border stretched from the present-day Oregon/California state line to the Gulf of Mexico just west of Louisiana, and previously existed only as a reference on historic maps and treaty documents because it

had never been surveyed or physically marked. For DeLIMITations, ERRE and Taylor asked the DELIMITATIONS MONUMENT 11(DETAIL), question, “what would Mexico and the United States look like if that boundary had been fully realized?” ERRE and Taylor, accompanied by filmmaker José Inerzia, who helped document the process, drove a van outfitted to serve as a mobile command center, fabrication space, and camper along the 1821 border. The artists marked the boundary by installing 47 sheet metal markers that mimic the stone and iron obelisks that delineate the current international border between the United States and Mexico.

RUBEN OCHOA: WATCHING, WAITING, COMMISERATING

ON VIEW 7/22/2016 THROUGH 11/27/16 Ruben Ochoa makes use of common construction materials to create imposing sculptural installations that intervene into the existing built environment. His sculptures—in addition to his drawings, photography, and public projects—move beyond the materials’ direct references to construction and labor in order to generate new associations between aesthetics, architecture, and class.

Part of a generation of Mexican-American artists who are engaging in new approaches to identity and cultural politics, Ochoa lays claim to conceptual and minimal art practices from the 1960s and ‘70s. As playful as it is dynamic, his large-scale installation watching, waiting, commiserating was commissioned by MCASD in 2010 as a response to the expansive Farrell Gallery. Consisting of numerous individual sculptures made of rebar and elevated shipping pallets, the work repurposes the infrastructure of the built environment, creating a space where labor is both literally enacted and abstractly referenced.

Ruben Ochoa: watching, waiting, commiserating is organized by the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego and made possible by proceeds from the 2016 Biennial Art Auction. Institutional support of MCASD is provided by the City of San Diego Commission for Arts and Culture and the County of San Diego Community Enhancement Fund.

MORIS: BEAUTIFUL LANDSCAPE 7: BEATINGS, HARD BREAD AND COLD-WATER BATHS

ON VIEW 7/22/2016 THROUGH 11/27/2016 In his Hermoso Paisaje series, Moris creates makeshift shelters and furniture using found materials such as garbage, tarps, and cardboard. These installations are made from the material remains of the urban landscape they recreate. Informed by art history, ethnography, and activism, the artist’s works are almost portraits of the city, capturing their wastefulness. In this site-specific work created for the MCASD exhibition Viva la Revolución in 2011, Moris references the utilitarian recycling of societies where inhabitants are forced to reuse materials due to unsustainable growth and eroding infrastructure. Moris draws on tarps by erasing and washing away dirt and soot to

MCASD’S TEEN ADVISORY GROUP GOES INTERNATIONAL Thanks to collaborative Museums Connect project

Last fall, MCASD was honored to be one of seven international recipients of the 2015-2016 Museums Connect grant award. Through this grant, 20 members from MCASD’s Teen Advisory Group (TAG) connected with 20 teens from the Museo Tamayo in Mexico City along with two social practice artists, to explore issues of violence in their respective communities and create photographic and video works inspired by these discussions.

Teens in both countries are receiving ongoing mentorship from social practice artists Itzel Martinez (Tijuana-based) and Edgardo Aragon (Oaxaca-based). Throughout the project both artists have worked directly with the teens in full-day DocShops—programs that pair the examination of a documentary film or video with a hands-on workshop.

For the first DocShop, participants viewed Martinez’s El Hogar Al Reves [Home Upside Down] and learned about conducting individual and group interviews using a video camera and mobile technology. At the second DocShop, Aragon shared his process as a video installation artist, instructed students in a photography workshop, and screened his work Efectos de familia [Family Effects].

Technology plays an exciting role in the project as well. The teens are exploring issues of violence and creating “Projects like the Teen artwork using digital cameras, video cameras, and Advisory Group highlight how Microsoft Surface tablets that were generously donated Surface tablets can empower by Microsoft Corporation. people to do great things and we’re excited to see how In March, the teens traveled to visit their international features like Digital Inking and counterparts for a week-long exchange.
