Soirée Cinématographique #6

At 11:00 we arrive at MUAC for the first presentation of today. Our audience are about 25 young people that work in the museum and want to learn more about Various Artists. (Some also followed the workshop Human Mathematics two days ago.) The translator Maria (who also works at MUAC) does a very good job and the Gesamtkunstwerk VA is, is quite well comprehended.

We also have Markku Nousiainen amongst the visitors of the presentation. He’s a Finnish artist living and working in Mexico City that came to visit us in November 2012 for the Fiesta del Maiz y Maguey. We lunch with him in the restaurant of MUAC and then VA takes us to see the Espacio Escultorico. We walk through the sculpture park of MUAC towards a beautiful round circle with a diameter of 100m that is surrounded with big cement pillar-like forms. The circle is actually a crater in volcanic stone in which wild plants are growing. It seems like a small eco-system. VA explains that he was here four years ago for an exhibition of Cildo Meireles and then the crater didn’t have anything green in it…

After this nice walk and saying goodbye to Markku, we take a taxi to ENAP, an arts academy in Mexico City for the second presentation of the day. This time we welcome arts students. We hope we were able to explain how to be creative with your artistic authorship and not get stuck in one classic artistic language.

The last night in Mexico City we have a small mezcal to say goodbye to Coyoacan.
