DOMIN? CAN?BAL (MEDINA, CUAUHTE_MOC)
Dominó Caníbal proposed as a counter-model to the usual types of artistic participation, presenting it as a platform made up of overlaps and discontinuities between various artists who engage with one another successively and in stages in the same space, cannibalizing (reinterpreting, demolishing and appropriating) the work of the other participants.The relationship between dominos and cannibalism is not as gratuitous as it may seem. On the one hand, the Manifiesto antropófago (Cannibal Manifesto), written in 1928 by the Brazilian poet Oswald de Andrade, suggested cannibalism as a metaphor for rebellion against the myths of originality and cultural identity. And on the other hand, the game of dominoes is itself the product of the successive cannibalization of its components: it is a truly trans- cultural object. Based on Chinese dice games, and taken, like pasta, to Italy, it ended up spreading with the Iberian colonization of the new world and become the most popular table game in Latin American societies.The aim of Dominó caníbal is to bring together all this imagery by inviting a group of artists – Jimmie Durham, Cristina Lucas, Bruce High Quality Foundation, Tania Bruguera and Francis Alÿs among others – to act in a space established not in terms of autonomy and individual identity but rather as a venue for ongoing negotiation between languages, materials and aesthetics.

U NO ÉS NINGÚ, 1979 (TÀPIES, ANTONI / BROSSA, JOAN)
Este libro constituye un verdadero hito bibliográfico, tanto por su valor intrínseco como por su especial significación. La «suite» de dibujos de Antoni Tàpies fue realizada entre 1950-1951, en el momento culminante de su etapa onírica, cuando la huella del surrealismo y la consolidación de su propia personalidad cristalizaban ya en obras de una extraordinaria altura. Los poemas en prosa de Joan Brossa, contemporáneos de dichos dibujos, son una visión paralela del mundo en lo literario, con unos hallazgos de profundo lirismo y una originalidad que justifican, por sí solos, el primerísimo lugar que ocupa este poeta en la literatura catalana.Así unidos, dibujos y poemas, constituyen además un testimonio de aquellos años en que fueron realizados.
