ZONAMACO | Arte Contemporáneo | Galleries | 2019

Galleries 2019

Main Section
More than 70 galleries with artists of international relevance, under the selection of a committee made up of Stefania Bortolami (Bortolami Gallery, New York), Ben Loveless (Galerie Nordenhake, Stockholm / Berlin), Patricia Ortiz Monasterio (Galería OMR, Mexico City) and Fernando Mesta (House of Gaga, Mexico City).

New Proposals
Curated by José Esparza Chong Cuy (Mexicali, 1984). The section will present artistic practices that, as the title suggests, aim to change frameworks. Rather than focusing on the time-based definition of “new,” this section will showcase work by artists that points towards imaginative and experimental ways of living and thinking.

_ⓢZONAMACO SUR
Curated by Kiki Mazzucchelli (São Paulo, 1972). Following up on “The Logic of Materials” –the 2018 edition of Z(s)ONAMACO Sur, which focused on contemporary artists’ renewed interest in materiality, the proposal for this edition will once again be framed as an attempt to ‘take the temperature of art world’ by examining yet another recent trend in artistic practices; this time with a focus on the idea of the ‘performative’.

Modern Art
This section shows historic pieces by international artists and provides an outlook on different genres, as well as emblematic pieces mainly created during the 20th century. Selection committee: Alejandra Yturbe (GAM, Mexico City), Mariana Pérez Amor (GAM, Mexico City) and Enrique Guerrero (Galería Enrique Guerrero, Mexico City / Houston).
