San Diego Public Library – Visual Arts Program Occupy Thirdspace II: Plástica y palabra en TJ/SD Closing Party! Last chance to see Occupy Thirdspace II: Plástica y palabra en TJ/SD, a contemporary art exhibit that explores the relationship between the visual arts and palabra (word). It documents the history of this relationship from the late 1980s to the present, through the work of artists who have lived and worked in Tijuana and San Diego. Palabra as a concept speaks back to the oppressive function of "Language," as a tool for colonization, assimilation, and exclusion—repurposing, translating, and changing it. Plástica y Palabra represents a collective force of impulses that cross geopolitical, racial, lingual, social, and economic borders. These practices live, give new life, and assign new meaning to their environment. Curated by Sara Solaimani and features work by David Avalos, Elizabeth Sisco, Louis Hock, Omar Pimienta, Cog•nate Collective, Adriana Trujillo, Jaime Ruiz Otis, Charles Glaubitz, Melissa Cisneros, Marcos Ramírez ERRE, and Comité Magonista Tierra y Libertad. ****Comité Magonista Tierra y Libertad will present a flag making workshop in the Valeiras Sculpture Garden on the 9th floor.
