A nexus for cultural and personal exchange between artists, journalists, activists and filmmakers on both sides of the border,\u00a0Mexicali<\/span>\u00a0Rose<\/span>\u00a0exemplifies the possibilities of 21st century hybridized culture through its pursuit of artistic expression grounded in barrio life. The work of the center has been recently featured in\u00a0Artforum<\/em>,\u00a0May Revue,<\/em>\u00a0Mexico City\u2019s\u00a0Generacion<\/em>, and media throughout Baja California.<\/p>\n Founded by\u00a0Mexicali<\/span>-born filmmaker Marco Vera in 2007 as an audio-visual workshop for neighborhood kids in border-adjacent Pueblo Nuevo, the workshop quickly expanded to include craft and trade classes, a community gallery exhibiting the work of local and international artists, a cinema club that showcases the work of Mexican and foreign filmmakers, and a radio station formed to provide a free and uncensored platform for local youth.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Radical Localism<\/em>:\u00a0Art, Video, and Culture from Pueblo Nuevo’s\u00a0\u00a0Mexicali<\/span>\u00a0Rose<\/span> The City Machine and Its Streets: Anomalous Ecologies<\/i><\/b> Opening: Friday March 30th,\u00a02012 NO FACE PORTRAITS, 2012 collage, acrylic, inks and tapes on canvas boards 12 X 18 cm.
