ABCDESPAC

About this book

Taking as a starting point the structure of a dictionary, this publication brings together twenty-five collaborations that, together, give an overview of the multiplicity of voices that make up the current art scene in Mexico City. Through various approaches to writing and contemporary thought, these "essays" observe the challenges faced by the cultural sector, question the relevance and necessity of art in the present and reveal alternative forms of construction of knowledge through artistic exercise. ABCDESPAC is an experimental curatorial project that functions as a collective exercise of reflection and that subverts the conventional processes that involve the creation of content. Its purpose is to review the history and learnings we have reached and establish a bridge between the past and the future.ʺ (HKB Translation) --Page 11.
