unitednationsplaza in Mexico City and
nightschool in New York
unitednationsplaza has been invited to present a month- long, condensed version of its Berlin program in Mexico City during March 2008. Our hosts in Mexico are two cultural organizations: PAC – a public association that organizes annual conferences on contemporary art there, and Casa Refugio – a municipal institution created in the late 60's to give shelter to persecuted intellectuals from all parts of the world. Our program for Mexico City will be a very intensive, back-to-back series of short seminars, screenings and performances taking place every day from March 1st to March 30th, including talks and workshops with Anselm Franke, Liam Gillick, Boris Groys, Nikolaus Hirsch, Chus Martinez, Martha Rosler, Natascha Sadr Haghighian, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Jalal Toufic, Jan Verwoert and Tirdad Zolghadr, as well as other contributions by Eduardo Abaroa, Julieta Aranda, Fia Backstrom, Regine Basha, Minerva Cuevas, Nico Dockx, Adriana Lara, Damian Ortega, Hila Peleg, Eduardo Sarabia, Angel Nevarez and Valerie Tevere.
