The last few weeks the valedores have been getting an objet-art workshop by Francisca Rodillo De Vicente, a chilean artist that seeks to breakthrough paradigms and preconceived ideas related to art, and technique; Francisca doesn´t use materials or formats considered normal for professional artist such as oleos or acrylics, rather she works with construction materials, latex, vinyls, varnishes, even recycled materials.
The artist believes that aimless techniques make us closer to the materials and colors we see regularly. This way, the interaction between sensibility and memory comes closer, for both the person who produces the art and the perception of everyone else.
In this space, Francisca and the valedores have had the chance to experiment with different materials, many of them recycled materials and a few others specially selected by the beneficiaries themselves. Francisca Rodillo has experienced what is usually regarded as “art therapy”, studies that go deep in the rationalization of human experiences in an abstract and unfiltered way.
The valedores are working on pieces that are going to be exhibited this thursday 11 of august at 5 p.m. at the Centro Cultural del México Contemporáneo. ¡Save the date!
On July 14, Mi Valedor hosted a Fanzine Workshop at Museo Jumex as part of the exhibition Football and Art: The Same Emotion. During the session, participants created football-inspired fanzines to share stories, ideas, and reflections drawn from their own experiences.
In the heart of the Historic Center, a group of Mi Valedor members gathered at Fundación Herdez to share much more than recipes: life stories, culinary knowledge, and the joy of building community around the kitchen.
Circo Volador, a renowned arts and cultural center, is one of Mexico City’s most iconic spaces for underground culture. Founded in 1995 by UNAM researcher Héctor Castillo Berthier, it has become a landmark social project, widely recognized as the city’s “cathedral of metal and rock” for its concerts, workshops, and community outreach. On this occasion, its Art Gallery became the home of a very special photography exhibition: “The Other Side of the Pitch”.
