It directly relates to the physical space –architecture and city plan, territory and frontier—as well as to the space for the identity. It is divided in two different sub-programs: “Isolated and transplanted urbans” and “Latinos in the art market.” The first one features videos criticizing the development policies in the architectonic space of the cities, showing the contrasts between urban boom and overwhelming underdevelopment. They also explore the surveillance and control, the use of other people’s territories and the toxic and military pollution generated by imperialist armies. The rest of works deal with issues such as the consequences of being uprooted, the contradictions of frontier policies, the condition of foreigner and the resistance to the identity loss. “Latinos in the art market” relates to the other vital space necessary for the survival and visibility in the world of art: the tense balance between the conditions of their mediators (market, institutions, critics and curators) and the artists’ personal choices.
