“Where are you from?_Stores / Version 09” (Exhibited in the context of the group show titled: “Extranjerías”) is a complex project initiated in 2002. It integrates research, travels, context-specific events and documentary video, having as final result a vast web-based archive of video on demand. At Espacio Fundación Telefónica (in Buenos Aires, Argentina) I present a new iteration of the project that incorporates a selection of 12 videos of 3 minutes each: in Spanish, in English and in French (the last two sub-titled in Spanish); a book; and a wall with a printed vocabulary of “keywords” extracted from the interviews. These three elements offer the visitors differentiated levels of access to the project. The interactive work is projected in large format within a cubicle created in the space of the gallery. This cubicle accommodates the visitor who sits at a “desk” in order to interact with the work and to choose her own route through the hyperlinked connections, simulating an experience of travel through the content, and constructing narrative relations between the parts in an individualized way. The work was commissioned and funded by Espacio Fundación Telefónica. A color exhibition catalogue and introduction essays by curators Néstor Garcia Canclini and Andrea Giunta accompanies the exhibition.
The exhibition “Extranjerías” is the culmination of a 3-year investigation initiated by Espacio Fundación Telefónica (Buenos Aires), directed and coordinated by social anthropologist Néstor García Canclini. The research project “Foreigners in Technology and Culture” was developed throughout 2007 and 2008 via a series of encounters and colloquia in which local and international interdisciplinary specialists in the arts, sciences and humanities, participated in discussing the concept of foreignness as a way of understanding new processes and interrelations between art, culture and technology. This research resulted in a publication assembling the essays presented during the colloquia, as well as the 10-person exhibition and an exhibition catalogue.
