Minicity: General View
title Minicity: General Viewdescription For inSITE97's Community Engagement Program, Amanda Farber developed "miniCITY/miniCIUDAD," an ongoing project constructed by children visiting the San Diego Children's Museum. The miniature city was pieced together from cardboard, scrap materials, and other miscellaneous craft items gathered and donated from various local stores. The open-ended structure of the project allowed children to create their own image of a city based on their personal experiences and imagination. Farber commented that she wanted the piece to focus on the children's ideas and perceptions, not a reflection of her own opinions and preconceptions. The resulting conglomeration of buildings, parks, and spaces of "miniCITY/miniCIUDAD" became a representation not only of the children's individuality and diversity, but also the diversity within the border region of San Diego and Tijuana. --inSITE97 Paintings Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) The New Children's Museum (American museum) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 04, Item 117) [Title, Date].

Toy-An-Horse: Construction Drawing
title Toy-An-Horse: Construction Drawingdescription For inSITE97, Marcos Ramirez ERRE collaborated with several artists to construct "Toy an Horse," a monumental wood and metal replica of the iconic Trojan Horse. Installed directly on top of the monument marking the border about 50 meters from the border cross-checkpoint at San Ysidro, the horse was visible to the 50,000 people crossing the border by car every day. Ramirez stated that the purpose of the project was to use the narrative symbolism of the Trojan horse to stimulate discussion about the border, invasion, cultural exchange, and dependency. --inSITE97 San Ysidro (San Diego, Calif.)

Popotla - The Wall: Mosaic Of Found Objects Representing Waves
title Popotla - The Wall: Mosaic Of Found Objects Representing Wavesdescription For their InSITE97 Community Engagement project, artist collective RevolucionArte (RevArte) worked with local children and residents of the fishing village Popotla to create murals constructed of found materials to soften and embellish the concrete walls surrounding their community. Popotla had recently been subjected to the development of numerous modern buildings and projects, including the kilometer-long concrete wall constructed for 20th Century Fox's production set for the film Titanic. It was on this wall that the murals were created, giving the residents a sense of ownership over their village and its landscape. "Popotla - The Wall/Popotla - El muro," was created over the course of four months, but even after the exhibition was over the community continued to add to the murals. --inSITE97 Popotla, Rosarito, Baja California Norte, Mexico Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 04, Item 295) [Title, Date].

Drill: Two Video Monitors
title Drill: Two Video Monitorsdescription Dolores Magdalena Memorial Recreation Center, Logan Heights, San Diego, California, United States Doug Ischar's inSITE97 project, "Drill/Taladro/Adiestramiento," was a series of video and audio installations that meandered through the gymnasium of the Dolores Magdelena Memorial Recreation Center in Logan Heights. Running for several hours on two weekends, the installations, named individually "Vent," "Seam," and "Patient," were connected by orange electrical cable, providing the viewer with a path to follow. Ischar pieced together the imagery and music that played while participants navigated the installation. --inSITE97 Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 06, Item 163) [Title, Date].

Dividing the room in half with a fifth wall, Lamelas plunged one side of the room into total darkness, while leaving the second half full of natural light from the window. Lamelas then cut a small hole in the fifth wall at eye level, allowing a single shaft of light to beam through into the darkness. Viewers could approach the room from either side of the fifth wall and peer into the dark or light side of the space. Positing the division of resources and rights between powers, Lamelas created his own border zone of privileged and unprivileged spaces. --inSITE97 [Title, Date]. InSite Archive. MSS 707.

The Great Balboa Park Landfill Exposition Of 1997
title The Great Balboa Park Landfill Exposition Of 1997description Balboa Park (San Diego, Calif.) Cindy Zimmerman's Community Engagement project for inSITE97 was the development of a new park environment at the landfill adjacent to Florida Canyon in Balboa Park. Constructing the piece over several months, Zimmerman involved children and families in the creation and placement of straw bales and clay in the landfill to make labyrinths, temporary earthworks, and adobe structures. "The Great Balboa Park Landfill Exposition of 1997/La gran exposicion del relleno del Balboa Park 1997" transformed an unused and unattractive plot of land into a new community park and art installation. Zimmerman led workshops and meetings throughout the project to involve the community and collaborate with the participants to create art from organic materials. -- inSITE97 Garden and Landscape Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 311, Folder 02, Item 424) [Title, Date].

Toaster Work Wagon: Modified Bicycle To Be Given Away To Children From The Wagon
title Toaster Work Wagon: Modified Bicycle To Be Given Away To Children From The Wagondescription Kim Adam's for inSITE97, Toaster Work Wagon, was a grafting on existing nomadic street life (i.e. concession vehicles). The trailered unit, constructed from the hoods and ends of two Volkswagen vans, set out on daily wanderings around San Diego and Tijuana like a winged toaster. Popping open into a work-waiting station, the Wagon attracted crowds of children and bystanders with its unusual contents. Children's bicycles were grafted into two-headed tricycles that were left at the site for adoption. Children experimented with the bicycles, cooperating with one another to move in one direction or the other. Adam's project experimented with notions of form and function as well as movement and direction. During the public phase of inSITE97, the Wagon was displayed at the Centro Cultural Tijuana. --inSITE97 Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 309, Folder 01, Item 008) [Title, Date].

Milk At L'Urbe Mooseum: Detail
title Milk At L'Urbe Mooseum: Detaildescription Collaborating with three other artists for her inSITE97 project, Helen Escobedo created a three-room installation at the ReinCarnation Project in downtown San Diego. "Milk at the L'Ubre Mooseum" was a spoof on the continuous efforts to improve milk's marketability. The Three rooms, the De-Spotting Room, Freeze-Dri room, and PR room, incorporated the machinery and equipment left from the ReinCarnation's milk factory and introduced new objects, such as the oversized papier-mache cow suspended from the ceiling, sadly stripped of its spots. In her proposal, Escobedo suggested the installation was meant to examine the meaning of milk to people on both sides of the border. --inSITE97 Paintings Performing Arts (including Performance Art) ReinCarnation Project San Diego (Calif.)
