Heroes Of War: Film Still From Interview With Paul Gabriel Fusco
title Heroes Of War: Film Still From Interview With Paul Gabriel Fuscodescription "Heroes of War," by Gonzalo Lebrija, is a video installation projected in the auditorium of the San Diego Veterans Museum in Balboa Park. Over a year before, Lebrija began working with veterans at the Veterans Home of California in Chula Vista. Gonzalo's goal was to intervene in the museum space, creating a curatorial discourse that approximates a creative group experience. Gonzalo participated in a number of reunions of former prisoners of war, or POWs. These experiences led him to explore the notion of military paraphernalia and veterans' narratives. Gonzalo filmed a number of individuals while they discussed the public recognition accorded to them and their actions as servicemen in times of war. --inSite_05 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 film still was extracted from a DVD-R from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 188, DVD 01) Veterans Museum, Balboa Park (San Diego, Calif.)

The Virgin Of Guadalupe
title The Virgin Of Guadalupedescription California artist Jeffrey Vallance proposed to make an intervention at the Tijuana Wax Museum for inSITE2000. Collaborating with Mexico City-based wax-figure maker Victor Hugo Yanez, Vallance produced three new figures for the museum: the Virgin of Guadalupe, Dante, and former US President Richard Nixon. Vallance started with a list of about twenty-eight names of historical and contemporary figures as potential additions to the display at the museum, and arrive at the selection of the three figures based on the existing exhibition structure. The Virgin of Guadalupe could be seen in full figure situated on her own, while Nixon was placed in the presidential room holding in his hands the symbolic element that came to define his public career, a simulated set of reel-to-reel Watergate tapes, and Dante was placed at the entrance to hell with his hand pointing the way. With his project for the Wax Museum, Vallance deepened his own interest and fascination with the three selected figures. In this way, having followed stories for years from different parts of the world detailing apparitions of the Virgin of Guadalupe, Vallance, during a residency period in San Diego, could add yet another apparition to the list - he spotted her up high on a stone column at the Courtyard by Marriott downtown hotel. -- inSITE2000 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 01, Item 386) Tijuana Wax Museum [Title, Date].

Podría Haber Muchos Más Que Éstos: General View
title Podría Haber Muchos Más Que Éstos: General Viewdescription Installed in the Children's Museum in downtown San Diego, Anna Maria Maiolino's work was a mass collection of clay coils placed in random piles around the room. Using similar forms and processes from her previous work, "There Could Be Many More Than These/Podria haber muchos mas que estos" focused on the gesture and repetition used to create the clay coils. Molded over the course of several weeks, the number of coils was finite, but the infinite nature of the gesture creating them made the installation an act of chance. --inSITE97 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 310, Folder 02, Item 222) [Title, Date].

Duet: Film Still
title Duet: Film Stilldescription Centro Cultural Tijuana Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art For New York-based artist Lorna Simpson, her inSITE2000 project Duet/Dueto was the first color film she had produced. The work was envisioned as a dual projection using two projectors to create a diptych or split-screen effect where two narratives could unfold in parallel. Filmed exclusively at sites in Tijuana and San Diego, including a hospital, bar, newspaper factory, office, and a home, with the participation of eight local actors, Simpson spent four days with her crew on the film shoot. The final film was on view at the Centro Cultural Tijuana from November 2000 through February 2001. --inSITE2000 Performing Arts (including Performance Art) Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This film still is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 06, Item 342) [Title, Date].
