Hospitality: Painting In Progress: Day One
title Hospitality: Painting In Progress: Day Onedescription Barbosa and Ricalde proposed covering the Puente Mexico (the pedestrian bridge that crosses the Tijuana River and leads from Avenida Revolucion toward the international border crossing at San Ysidro) with a carpet of painted names: a "welcome mat." The project, entitled "Hospitality," was inspired by the way in which color, typography, and first names are employed as marks of identity, much like the woven bracelets sold in handcraft market stalls along the border.

America: Wall Of "Flags" Made Of Colored Sand
title America: Wall Of "Flags" Made Of Colored Sanddescription For inSITE94, Japanese artist Yukinori Yanagi contributed two distinct installations titled "Wandering Position/Vagamundos" and "America/America," which were installed at the Santa Fe Depot and the downtown space of the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego, respectively. Yanagi's work "America" had been installed previously in variations at different institutions around the world. For this installation the artist chose to include thirty-six flags of each country of the Americas in his elaborate ant farm. Over the course of the exhibition the ants created tunnels through the various flags and the colored sand that was used was gradually mixed, thereby creating new symbols. -- inSITE94 Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego 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 416) [Title, Date].

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 195) [Title, Date].

Los Vendedores De Tijuana
title Los Vendedores De Tijuanadescription Drawings and Watercolors Kruglak Gallery, MiraCosta College Paintings San Diego-based artist Roberto Salas created an installation titled "Los vendedores de Tijuana" for inSITE94. Drawing from his own experience of selling a variety of things as a child, Salas made a selection of the traditional items one would find being offered while waiting to cross the border from Mexico to the United states. Anyone having been through that experience will know that vendors roam the rows of cars with all their wares draped across their bodies, stacked on their heads, or filling their arms. Salas chose to use the seemingly endless plaster cast figures made to appeal to American tourists, such as Mickey Mouse, skulls, hamburgers, Madonnas, Ninja Turtles, and so on, to create what he referred to as "monumental shamans of kitsch." --inSITE94 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 05, Item 327) [Title, Date].
