Sculpture: Rebecca Horn, Berlin, 1974

September 18, 2010 – January 23, 2011

MOLAA is proud to present Descartes, the inaugural exhibition at The Collaborative, September 18, 2010 – January 23, 2011. Organized by the Museum of Latin American Art and curated by Idurre Alonso, Descartes features the work of Gabriel Boils, Dream Addictive (Leslie García and Carmen González), Jaime Ruiz Otis and Camilo Ontivero. The Spanish word descartes refers to something that has been ruled out, rejected, eliminated or excluded. The artists in this exhibition work with discarded elements including industrial waste from factories, second-hand puzzles, solar energy and used mattresses, washing machines and other electronic materials. “These artists not only address larger world issues such as the economy, the environment and consumerism but also issues closer to home that are more personal and often relate to the fact that they live in close proximity to the U.S. / Mexico border,” stated exhibition curator Idurre Alonso.
