Our biennial includes programs often known as public and pedagogic. By means of workshops, conversations, project presentations, conferences and other formats, we underline varying forms and levels for approaches to contemporary artistic practices. Their configurations propose routes over multiple, irregular terrains that may spur us to change our perspectives. They also contemplate intersections between areas and voices the biennial has convoked, largely active in Guanajuato and the surrounding Bajío region.

Fuera de campo

In this event, participants in the “Off-Screen” lab will interact with the exhibition space as if it were their own rooms, performing different actions. Using objects and recordings of the space, they’ll create new meanings and scenic possibilities for the audience. Echoes, live subtitles, repetitions, sound superimpositions, and other compositions give way to the ever-changing, fragmented product of this improvisational act in conversation with the narrative possibilities of what’s on-screen.

Al cuerpo que se vierte, que palpita, que canta

This performance explores the connection between sound and healing, using vibration to immerse people in a sacred space where sound becomes a tangible experience. Within the space, a group of dancers will invoke memories of lullabies using tones and frequencies that come to life in a ritual of movement, words, and bodily connection.

During this event, the artist will take photographic portraits on a set that honors the January 12th traditions in León: a festival around San Juan Diego popularly known as “Día de los Indios”.
