The [Virtual] Movement Research Festival presents a GPS Chats focusing on the Movement Research Exchange Program (MRX) with Mexico.
This will be a conversation with artists that have participated in the first exchange in 2013 and the last exchange before the pandemic hit in 2020. We'll be joined by the organizers from Mexico Laboratorio: Condensación and Segundo Piso and the conversation will be moderated by Levi Gonzalez.
These artistic exchanges between the US and Mexico have created space for a more expansive dialogue on the realities, challenges and possibilities of being a working artist within and across these two countries' borders.
Accessible PDF program to come.
