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.)

Tijuana Projection
title Tijuana Projectiondescription After a two-year process, Krzysztof Wodiczko's project culminated in two evenings of projections on the 60-foot-diameter façade of the Omnimax Theater at the Centro Cultural Tijuana. Known for his large-scale outdoor projections, with "Tijuana Projection/Proyección en Tijuana" Wodiczko wanted to use progressive technology to give voice and visibility to the women who work in the maquiladora industry in Tijuana. The projections consisted of prerecorded materials interspersed with live feeds from a headset with an integrated camera and microphone designed by the artist and worn by the participating women. This was Wodiczko's first time creating a projection incorporating live segments, adding a certain immediacy and potency to the presentation of these very personal accounts. In preparation for the projection, the artist conducted nearly one year of workshops with eight participating women. His work with these eight women was facilitated through two organizations based in Tijuana, (Factor X and Yeuani), that are dedicated to helping women who face difficulties in the workplace or at home. The pre-recorded and live personal testimonies given by the eight women focused on work-related and sexual abuse, family disintegration, alcoholism, and domestic violence. The scale at which these stories were heard and witnessed in the open space of the city and by an audience of more than 1,500 on the Centro plaza over the two nights created a powerful impact and literally magnified what so often never gets spoken about. The projections took place February 23 and 24, 2001. -- inSITE2000 Centro Cultural Tijuana 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 311, Folder 01, Item 408) [Title, Date].

Blue Students
title Blue Studentsdescription Casa de la Cultura de Tijuana Liz Magor's inSITE97 project was an experiment in Photography that involved portraits of students from both the School of Creative and Performing Arts in San Diego and the Preparatoria Federal Lazaro Cardenas in Tijuana. For "Blue Students/Alumnos en Azul," Magor took portraits of numerous senior students and created various format negatives. She pressed the negatives with paper covered in iron salts that converted each into a positive blue image under exposure to Daylight. Magor placed the negatives throughout San Diego and Tijuana, and allowed the various states of light to produce the final pictures. By the end of the exhibition, only a few images had not been completely obscured by effects of the Daylight. Magor stated that the final images in their various stages of legibility represented the power of circumstance and chance that governs the path of people's lives. --inSITE97 Photographs San Diego (Calif.)

Tijuana Projection
title Tijuana Projectiondescription After a two-year process, Krzysztof Wodiczko's project culminated in two evenings of projections on the 60-foot-diameter façade of the Omnimax Theater at the Centro Cultural Tijuana. Known for his large-scale outdoor projections, with "Tijuana Projection/Proyección en Tijuana" Wodiczko wanted to use progressive technology to give voice and visibility to the women who work in the maquiladora industry in Tijuana. The projections consisted of prerecorded materials interspersed with live feeds from a headset with an integrated camera and microphone designed by the artist and worn by the participating women. This was Wodiczko's first time creating a projection incorporating live segments, adding a certain immediacy and potency to the presentation of these very personal accounts. In preparation for the projection, the artist conducted nearly one year of workshops with eight participating women. His work with these eight women was facilitated through two organizations based in Tijuana, (Factor X and Yeuani), that are dedicated to helping women who face difficulties in the workplace or at home. The pre-recorded and live personal testimonies given by the eight women focused on work-related and sexual abuse, family disintegration, alcoholism, and domestic violence. The scale at which these stories were heard and witnessed in the open space of the city and by an audience of more than 1,500 on the Centro plaza over the two nights created a powerful impact and literally magnified what so often never gets spoken about.

Heroes Of War: Film Still From Interview With Ronald A. Ritter
title Heroes Of War: Film Still From Interview With Ronald A. Ritterdescription "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.)

For "Blue Students/Alumnos en Azul," Magor took portraits of numerous senior students and created various format negatives. She pressed the negatives with paper covered in iron salts that converted each into a positive blue image under exposure to Daylight. Magor placed the negatives throughout San Diego and Tijuana, and allowed the various states of light to produce the final pictures. By the end of the exhibition, only a few images had not been completely obscured by effects of the Daylight.

Public Projections
title Public Projectionsdescription After a two-year process, Krzysztof Wodiczko's project culminated in two evenings of projections on the 60-foot-diameter façade of the Omnimax Theater at the Centro Cultural Tijuana. Known for his large-scale outdoor projections, with "Tijuana Projection/Proyección en Tijuana" Wodiczko wanted to use progressive technology to give voice and visibility to the women who work in the maquiladora industry in Tijuana. The projections consisted of prerecorded materials interspersed with live feeds from a headset with an integrated camera and microphone designed by the artist and worn by the participating women. This was Wodiczko's first time creating a projection incorporating live segments, adding a certain immediacy and potency to the presentation of these very personal accounts. In preparation for the projection, the artist conducted nearly one year of workshops with eight participating women. His work with these eight women was facilitated through two organizations based in Tijuana, (Factor X and Yeuani), that are dedicated to helping women who face difficulties in the workplace or at home. The pre-recorded and live personal testimonies given by the eight women focused on work-related and sexual abuse, family disintegration, alcoholism, and domestic violence. The scale at which these stories were heard and witnessed in the open space of the city and by an audience of more than 1,500 on the Centro plaza over the two nights created a powerful impact and literally magnified what so often never gets spoken about. The projections took place February 23 and 24, 2001. -- inSITE2000 Centro Cultural Tijuana Film, Audio, Video and Digital Art Performing Arts (including Performance Art) Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This video file was extracted from a DVD-R from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 256, DVD 00-16) [Title, Date].
