- Summary:
- The exposition and accompanying book explore the contributions made by the journal Curare. Espacio Crítico para las Artes to the art world over the course of two decades (1991-2010). Comprised of art historians and critics, this civil association was conceived, at a time when there was a dire need for a platform that facilitated debate and reflection, as a type of counterinstitutionʺ that afforded the opportunity to challenge art and hegemonic cultural policy. The exhibition highlights the wide diversity of strategies that the group initiated within the cultural domain: expositions, publications, seminars, colloquiums, debates, curatorial consulting, historical reinterpretation projects, database and collection design, to name only a few. Similarly, the project offers multiple points of entry to learn about Curare: as a response to a series of contingencies and as a catalyst for foundational events in the area of art criticism, curatorship and the historiography of art in Mexico. The curatorship was in charge of Maco Sánchez Blanco and Jaime González Solís, who through a timeline, with documents, photographs and copies, provide the public with a clear panorama and a careful tour of this important initiative.
