Hinweis der Redaktion
- Leon: Opening remarks Kerry: What is bi-national art? Responding to the border in a way that reflects the semi-permeable nature of the border, in which many people/most people are not of one side or the other. How our personal backgrounds reflect bi-national experience.
- Kerry: Brief description of the exhibit. Growing significance of the timing, desire to make local links without oversimplifying the message of The Disappeared or trying to draw correlations where they did not exist. Leon: Approach to the exhibit as a Mexican (Mexican disappeared were nowhere to be found). Why draw regional and local relationships with the exhibit. Significance of the original invitation to collaborate.
- Kerry: Idea behind Battleground exhibit. Original notion of collaboration (students visiting human right NGO’s, webcam “complain box”, workshop). UTEP’s change of policy regarding visits to Juárez. Leon: Reaction to UTEP’s policy as a Juárez native, citizen and UTEP grad. Misunderstanding about workshop/performance as the proposal for the trans-border collaboration. Reaction to original “webcam complaint box” idea.
- Kerry:The importance of having a “presence” from Juarez on the El Paso side, the fact that the virtual performance more accurately reflected the border reality than any other kind of performance. Idea of having a show about violence that in some way connected to the violence in Juarez, beginning to reveal the constant tension felt by border residents. Leon: Reaction to experience on ep side. Experience on jz side. Interpretation as jz resident.
- Kerry: Lessons left behind by the experience from the ep side (how to work around official policies, remaining open to possibilities), importance of creating a space that reflected student realities, subtleties of border. Leon: Lessons left behind by the experience from the jz side (possibility of transgressing border in virtual terms, bringing something to the table even if it means changing the original artist’s idea)
- Kerry: Brief intro to Fernando’s work. Fernando’s proposal for workshop. Leon: Original reaction to Fernando’s proposal.
- Kerry: Actuality of workshop (how successful it was)
- Leon: bicycles in Manuel Arroyo’s march. Learn how to trust the artist’s original idea.
- Leon: Brief intro to DesCercos. Kerry: Reasons to support DesCercos
- Leon: Success of DesCercos as VERY local event. Kerry: Reaction from ep to this part of DesCercos.
- Leon: Very brief description of exhibit. Kerry: Failure of DesCercos as Bi-National event.
- Kerry: Closing remarks
