Signs Of Mount Signal: View Of Exhibition At Steppling Art Gallery, San Diego State University, Calexico
title Signs Of Mount Signal: View Of Exhibition At Steppling Art Gallery, San Diego State University, Calexicodescription For inSITE2000 New York-based artist Allan McCollum created a multivenue project involving the participation of residents and institutions from the Imperial Valley and Valle de Mexicali region to the east of San Diego. Interested in participating in the establishment of a cultural identity and iconography for the region, McCollum was initially drawn to the area through learning about sand spikes, a unique natural geological concretion found only at the foot of Mt. Signal/El Centinela. With the mountain straddling the US-Mexico border, it was already established as a physical landmark and identifying symbol for locals on either side of the border. During extended residency periods McCollum collected artworks by local residents depicting the mountain and performed extensive research on the sand spike and Mt. Signal, as well as the local culture surrounding both. With his project Signs of Mount Signal/Signos del Cerro del centinela, McCollum brought together the work of thirty-seven local artists showcasing the mountain and forged a collaboration between four regional institutions. The project included over one thousand cast replicas of the sand spike and Mt. Signal, a 16-foot sand spike sculpture, a large-scale model of Mt. Signal, collected historical information about the area, local artwork depicting the mountain, as well as twelve booklets produced by the artist on the subject of concretions. The project was shown in parts at the Museo de la Universidad Autonoma de Baja California, Mexicali, the Steppling Art Gallery at San Diego State University in Calexico, the Imperial County Historical Society Pioneer's Museum, and combined at the University Art Gallery at San Diego State University. --inSITE2000 Paintings Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) Steppling Art Gallery, San Diego State University.

The intention was to create a space where the public could view inSITE2000 media-based projects and peruse materials related to the exhibition in general. The two sites also functioned as gathering places for several panel discussions and artist lectures for the Conversations series that was one of the components of inSITE2000.

Tijuana'S Most Wanted Painting / San Diego'S Most Wanted Painting: Exhibition Of Paintings At The San Diego Museum Of Art
title Tijuana'S Most Wanted Painting / San Diego'S Most Wanted Painting: Exhibition Of Paintings At The San Diego Museum Of Artdescription Centro Cultural Tijuana Drawings and Watercolors Paintings Russian artist collaborators Vitaly Komar and Alex Melamid continued their "Most Wanted Paintings" series for inSITE2000, a series that employs a democratic process in creating "people's art" based on the aesthetic desires of the general population in a given area or country. As in previous versions of the series, the artists used multiple-choice survey questionnaires to discern, statistically, the personal preferences in art. The surveys were conducted in San Diego and Tijuana by graduate students from San Diego State University and from the Colegio de la Frontera Norte over the course of several weeks. The artists then used the data collected to create two paintings, San Diego's Most Wanted Painting and Tijuana's Most Wanted Painting. The two paintings were on view first at the San Diego Museum of Art and subsequently at the Centro Cultural Tijuana. --inSITE2000 San Diego Museum of 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 310, Folder 01, Item 194) [Title, Date].

Heat Seeking: Cell Phones
title Heat Seeking: Cell Phonesdescription "Heat-Seeking," the film Jordan Crandall produced for inSITE2000, made use of and mimicked surveillance technology deployed along the US-Mexico border. Exploring themes of Erotica and violence through five fantasy sequences woven into the overall structural narrative of mobility and monitoring, the film was shot on location in San Diego and Tijuana over the course of seven days in August 2000. Crandall stated that he wanted to use the language of cinema, advertising, and the "strategic seeing" of military systems to produce a film that would investigate interior and exterior borders. The piece was presented in two formats that each referenced mobility and ultimately established a reconfigured role of the viewer. In Tijuana, the film could be seen on the video billboard at the Cuauhtémoc Circle where scenes would be interspersed with advertising and other public media. In San Diego, Crandall's film could be seen on hand-held cell phones using streaming video technology. --inSITE2000 Cuauhtémoc Circle, Tijuana (Baja California, Mexico) Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art San Diego (Calif.)

Picturing Paradise: Border Fence With Mirrored Surfaces: View From The United States Side Of Border
title Picturing Paradise: Border Fence With Mirrored Surfaces: View From The United States Side Of Borderdescription Border Field State Park, San Diego For inSITE2000 Brazilian artist Valeska Soares was drawn to work directly with the border fence that divides the US and Mexico. Soares wanted specifically to find a way for people on either side of the border to be able to come together around a common theme or event and in some way create an exchange, or the illusion of an exchange, across the fence. Her initial proposal was for a garden project that would require a reconfiguration of the fence, yet it proved to be impossible to obtain permission to realize this idea. Soares changed her proposal but remained faithful to her concept of creating an opening in the fence. With Picturing Paradise the artist installed two highly polished large sheets of steel directly onto a section of chain-link fence at Playas de Tijuana, back to back, and as it were, creating the illusion of an opening in the fence, except what was seen was a reflection. Each mirrored surface was inscribed with an excerpt from Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino, a text that speaks of two mirror cities and what describes their shared reality. --inSITE2000 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 310, Folder 06, Item 365) Tijuana River National Estuarine Research Reserve (Calif.)

The Invisible Man (My Way): Wrestlers Wrestling In Ring
title The Invisible Man (My Way): Wrestlers Wrestling In Ringdescription Conceived by Mexico City artist Carlos Amorales as a further elaboration of the identity of his wrestling character, Amorales, his project for inSITE2000, "The Invisible Man (My Way)/El hombre invisible (A mi manera)," took the form of two public and distinct wrestling performances. On Friday, January 19, 2001, two wrestlers from Holland, Amorales and Amorales, were featured in a fight against Mexican wrestling stars Satanico and Ultimo Guerrero. The match was part of the regular Friday night program at the Auditorio Municipal, Tijuana. The crowd of 3,500 was quiet with uncertainty as these two unknown Dutch lucha libre personalities walked into the ring. The uncertainty was transformed to excitement as the audience realized that the two Amoraleses were not impostors, but professional lucha libre wrestlers. By the end of the fight, the audience was divided between those screaming, "Amorales, Amorales!" and those who were faithful to the national wrestlers, evil as they might be. At 8:00 pm, on Saturday, January 20, 2001, the sequel of the Amorales wrestling match took place as the centerpiece of a black-tie dinner at the prestigious Wyndham Emerald Plaza Hotel in downtown San Diego. The fight was followed by dancing with music mixed live by Silverio. -- inSITE2000 Performing Arts (including Performance Art) 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 025) Wyndam Emerald Plaza Hotel, San Diego, California, United States [Title, Date].
