Dialogue
Pablo López Luz and Sandra Rozental
November 5, 2015
Pablo López Luz presents the relationships he establishes between the pre-Hispanic past and contemporary architecture. López Luz showed his latest book Pyramid (2014) and his new photographic series Neo-Inca made in Peru. Mexican anthropologist Sandra Rozental complemented the presentation with considerations on the use of architecture as a tool for representation of national identity.
Rozental established at the same time a dialogue between the work of Luz Lopez and his own film work. She showed a fragment of her film La Piedra Ausente, directed with Jesse Lerner, who narrates the transfer of large monolith that represents a pre-Hispanic deity of water, “the largest carved stone in America” from the village of San Miguel Coatlinchan up to the National Museum of Anthropology in Mexico City.
ABOUT UNDISCIPLINED INTERLUDES: This cycle explores the relationships that spawn in the intersection of disciplines and collaborative work. Through the work of invited authors in Theater, Cinema, Literature and Visual Arts, a series of events around space appropriation are proposed. The encounters on this cycle are interventions in themselves which allow the artists to test and expand their practice from analytic, thoughtful and creative methods similar to the processes of architectural projection.
