Interludes 40

Walk through Juarez neighbourhood
Guide: Aeromoto
June 22, 2017
 

The ramble starting from Aeromoto, headed by choreographers Juan Francisco Maldonado, Nadia Lartigue and Esthel Vogrig. It moves through the maze of streets named after European cities that remind us of the history of the democracy and the different shapes that powers has taken around the world; urban clusters that at certain times carried out protests and civil movements. This imaginary cartography, the coordinates of which are arbitrarily determined by the signage of Juarez district, is an excuse to observe what happens in Mexico City downtown, only a few steps away from the famous parade “del Ángel al Zócalo”.
 

ABOUT THE RAMBLE INTERLUDES. The Ramble Interludes cycle proposes a series of walks; each one will depart from a space that have a special connection with art and the city and will focus on a specific urban context, a certain neighborhood. Representatives of ten different spaces will guide subjective visits to the urban surroundings the building belongs to; they will point out spontaneous situations that have sparked their interest or anonymous architectural landmarks. This series of encounters thus sets out to investigate the relation between the architecture of the city and its users through case studies where different communities and collectives are connected with their districts thanks to cultural programmes.
