23 September 1994
title 23 September 1994description Estación del Ferrocarril, Colonia Libertad, 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 309) Titled "23 September 1994" after the opening date of the entire inSITE94 exhibition, Ulf Rollof's installation consisted of a circular railroad situated at the defunct border rail-crossing site in Colonia Libertad in Tijuana. Just yards from the border fence, one could take a ride on this circular track where a single wagon with five fir trees planted in empty oil drums went around in endless circles to a dizzying effect. However, rather than being transported around on the track itself there was just a single seat at the hub of the circle and the view from the seat was directed straight at the fir trees, so that although movement occurred the outlook one had remained the same. -- inSITE94 [Title, Date].

Animal Vegetable Mineral
title Animal Vegetable Mineraldescription Artists Nanette Yannuzzi Macias and Melissa Smedley collaborated on a two-part installation for inSITE94 at El Sotano (an abandoned mop factory) in Tijuana and the San Diego Natural History Museum. Entitled "Animal Vegetable Mineral: Comidas para los sombreros," the artists explained the installations as explorations of the rituals of communication. At El Sotano, the work consisted of a multitude of materials from a cotton loom, gourds, candles, and buckets, to a deerskin, bird cage, and eucalyptus tree stump, suggesting, according to the artists, a laboratory space that referenced the machine and ritual. The installation at the Natural History Museum acted as a response to this magical machine and incorporated video elements situating the materials in dialogues that suggested not yet considered relationships. --inSITE94 El Sotano, Tijuana 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 357) [Title, Date].

The Good Neighbor
title The Good Neighbordescription Casa de la Cultura de Tijuana Installed at the Casa de la Cultura in Tijuana, Tony Capellan's inSITE97 piece, El buen vecino/The Good Neighbor, was a symbol of the border and the consequences brought by partitioning land between two powers. The two chairs at the heads of table represented to United States and Mexican governments, and the table, covered in chili peppers, was dissected by a raucous, spinning buzz saw. Originally conceived to represent two hundred years of land treaties between the two countries, the final installation emphasized the violence and loss experienced by Mexico when the country was divested of its lands. --inSITE97 Performing Arts (including Performance 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 309, Folder 03, Item 060) [Title, Date].
