We Teach Life: Towards Different Geographies and Calendars

Artwork will be showcased at the Centro Cultural de la Raza from January 10, 2025 to March 30th, 2025.

The 2025 Enero Zapatista exhibition is being organized in conjunction with a four-part series of exhibits, Borderlands Visions, which seeks to rethink, reimagine, reorient and re-embody how we conceive of and experience the borderlands, understood as those in-between spaces created by the emotional residue of unnatural boundaries. As such, the exhibit has a twofold goal of drawing attention to how borders operate differently across geographies, but also to highlight the refusal of said mappings of power. We encourage you to submit art piece(s) that address the above themes and represent the Zapatista spirit of autonomy! Today, the struggle continues and we stand in solidarity with all people worldwide who are fighting to teach life in a time of livestreamed genocide and soundbite gaslighting.

Please complete and submit this art submission form below by EXTENDED DEADLINE of December 18, 2024. We will notify artists whose pieces have been selected for inclusion on December 19, 2024. Link: https://forms.gle/qdkRJwEwaPPC1akw5 Link in bio.

If you have any questions, please email us at comparteSD@gmail.com
Looking forward to another amazing Enero! #enerozapatista #enerozapatista2025
