Airplane Parts And Building, A Large Growth For San Diego: Exterior View
title Airplane Parts And Building, A Large Growth For San Diego: Exterior Viewdescription Commissioned by the Museum of Contemporary Art, San Diego a few years prior to 1994, the Museum presented, in conjunction with inSITE94, a new installation by Los Angeles-based artist Nancy Rubins at their downtown location. Titled "Airplane Parts and Building, A Large Growth for San Diego," the installation was built of discarded airplane parts that were arranged to rise from the floor of the interior space of the Museum and pierce through the building's south-facing windows to form a large hovering growth on the exterior. The dynamic arrangement of the elements made the pieces work together as one appearing frozen in time and their careful placement as a whole suggested a rapid movement as though whirled together by some unknown force. --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 310, Folder 05, Item 318) [Title, Date].

The Jewel / In God We Trust: Junk Car Covered In Gold Leaf In Luxury Car Dealer Showroom
title The Jewel / In God We Trust: Junk Car Covered In Gold Leaf In Luxury Car Dealer Showroomdescription João Louro's project "The Jewel / In God We Trust" traces the inverted trajectory of the recycling dynamic that characterizes the border zone. His project begins with the selection of a European car recovered from a junkyard in Tijuana and transformed into a "jewel" through the addition of a skin of gold leaf. Once this trash object is transformed into a opulent gold sculpture it will be exhibited and auctioned in San Diego. Proceeds from the sale will be given to an elementary school in Tijuana and used to support visual art workshops for children, where students will be encouraged to add further layers of imagery to the paper money. --inSite_05 La Jolla, San Diego (Calif.)

Osmosis And Excess: Film Still Depicting Tijuana Hillside Covered In Junk Cars
title Osmosis And Excess: Film Still Depicting Tijuana Hillside Covered In Junk Carsdescription Aernout Mik has created a video entitled "Osmosis and Excess" that interweaves images of junkyards in Tijuana's urban periphery with fictional scenes depicting a local pharmacy inundated with mud. Used cars flow from the United States to Mexico where they are eventually broken down and discarded on Tijuana's barren hillsides. Moving in the other direction, cheap drugs flow from Tijuana into the United States. The abandoned cars and the medications represent different manifestations of excess. Both modify a landscape: one inner, the other outer. The film was shot on high-definition video in a panoramic format to best illustrate the depicted landscapes. The video was projected as an intervention in a public parking lot in downtown San Diego.

Popotla - The Wall: Crushed Beer Cans Used To Color Mural
title Popotla - The Wall: Crushed Beer Cans Used To Color Muraldescription 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 297) [Title, Date].
