<p>Spanning the past 25 years, México Inside Out includes some of today’s most significant artists with strong ties to Mexico, whether they were born there, immigrated, attended school or lived there during their formative years. This major exhibition establishes a lineage between the influential artists who revitalized Mexico’s mark on the art world--Francis Alÿs, Abraham Cruzvillegas, Teresa Margolles, Gabriel Orozco, Yoshua Okón and Melanie Smith--and those who have followed their lead, emerging as the most recent generation to achieve critical acclaim--Edgardo Aragón, José Antonio Vega Macotela and the collective Tercerunquinto. Andrea Karnes, curator, comments, “Profound intersections course through the work of these artists, each of whom addresses daily life as a vital part of their practice, from the mundane to the serious to the humorous. Their visual and conceptual output is a testament to how local issues often transgress geographic boundaries to speak to the human condition on a universal level.”</p>

<p>An intertextual, fictionalized narrative weaves together several years of Mexican artist Erick Meyenberg’s observations, research, video recordings, and paintings based on logbooks kept by gardener Chris Shea. Meyenberg’s conversations with Shea about his ephemeral landscape infer Shea’s terminal cancer diagnosis, which propels the deep emotional intelligence of this bilingual book as it reflects on time, loss, and change. Inspired by Shea’s delicate language for color, Meyenberg’s project becomes a memorial to Shea’s own artistry and irreplaceability. Eloisa Haudenschild, Director of inSite, commissioned Meyenberg’s project with Shea for haudenschildGarage in La Jolla, California, and enlisted curator Ruth Estévez, the text’s author.</p>
