The Museo de Arte Contempráneo de Puerto Rico presents part two of the exhibition: : (Anarquía y dialéctica en el deseo: géneros y marginalidad en Puerto Rico, Part 2) on view now through February 28, 2021. This exhibition transcends the approach of exhibiting “art made by women” to give way to the study and recognition of the material, historical, political and subjective reality of the body as a self-conscious space; one that recognizes ‘Desire’ as the impulse and catalyst for artistic production, and 'Art’ as an exercise of resistance and re-existence. Being an artist in a country rife with colonial history as Puerto Rico implies inhabiting a space of political, social or economic marginality. Moreover, being a woman, or inhabiting a feminized or racialized body, AND being an artist on the island thus involves intersections that widen the layers of marginality, which requires further contextualization. Join MAC for a virtual conversation led by Raquel Torres Arzola (artist, educational coordinator, and guest curator) on Wednesday, 12/16, at 6PM EST. To register, visit the link in our bio!
