EXTRANJEROS NATIVOS / NATIVE FOREIGNERS

LISTEN THE RECORDED BROADCAST!
22.APR.2017 / 12PM – 3PM. Mexico City

We must state it with all clarity: the ubiquity of the work stops being a secondary characteristic and becomes an essential, defining element that gives birth to new forms.Ulises Carrión

NATIVE FOREIGNERS is a radio broadcasting event happening simultaneously in Mexico City, Amsterdam and Athens.

The program brings together Carrión’s fans and scholars alike across space and time with discussions, readings, and performances from all three cities. The radio show addresses the resonance of Ulises Carrión’s oeuvre in contemporary culture, as well as discusses current forms and strategies of (artistic) self-determination beyond, behind, or within institutions.

Three radio stations will be temporarily installed at Museo Jumex, De Appel and Parko Eleftherias in collaboration with three local web radios. Local audiences are welcome to join the event in one of the locations, while everyone, everywhere can listen to the broadcast on the world wide web.
