Museum of Art Carrillo Gil

A documentary capsule on the exhibition “Move to Name” by Galia Eibenschutz (Mexico City, 1970), curated by Anel Jiménez, Associate Curator of the MACG, which opened on October 30, 2019, on the third floor of the MACG. The exhibition consisted of three performances: Ephemeral Drawings, Transmission Drawing, and Vulnerable Terrain, initiated by a cast of collaborators from various disciplines.

Documentary capsule. Guest curator Luis Felipe Fabre discusses the esoteric approach to the exhibition “The Black Sun of Melancholy”—based on Gerard de Nerval’s 19th-century poem “The Wretched”—which showcases works from the Carrillo Gil collection with texts and images in a constellation-like fashion, thus allowing for new and diverse readings of the collection today.

A documentary capsule about the exhibition by artist Santiago Muedano (Mexico City, 1993), curated by Tomás Pérez González, which opened in October 2019 at the MACG presents exhibition space. The exhibition reflected on the way we interact with our environment through the use of mobile devices and the digital technology they employ.

Documentary capsule. Mauricio Marcin, Chief Curator of the MACG, talks about the research he conducted to create the exhibition Abuses of Forms, in which he debates the links and transfers between art and crafts—from the 1950s to the present in Mexico—which, due to distribution, marketing, and exhibition mechanisms, have become abusive.
