MARILYN BOROR BOR, SEBA CALFUQUEO, JULIETH MORALES. PERFORMANCE Y DISIDENCIAS

On April 18, 2026, the performance cycle "Atravesar el lago" (Crossing the Lake) took place in open spaces of Casa del Lago UNAM in Chapultepec Park, curated by Adonay Bermúdez. Artists Marilyn Boror Bor, Seba Calfuqueo, and Julieth Morales activated performances that destabilize dominant knowledge frameworks and confront narratives imposed by colonial modernity. Boror Bor's "Lo que el cemento no puede cubrir" turned the body into a living archive summoning ancestral memories; Calfuqueo's "Guardo mis semillas para el futuro" opened fissures in imposed borders; and Morales's "Enchumbarnos: Cuerpo, Norma y Territorio. Ritual para dos cuerpos" configured a threshold of listening and transformation. The article includes a curatorial text fragment exploring water as a dissident force, drawing on Silvia Rivera Cusicanqui's thought.

Salon | Impressionism, Realism & Post-Impressionism

The Salon was an official art exhibition sponsored by the French government, originating in 1667 when Louis XIV sponsored an exhibit of works by members of the Académie Royale de Peinture et de Sculpture. It was held in the Salon d’Apollon of the Louvre Palace in Paris, and after 1737 it became an annual event, with a jury system introduced in 1748. During the French Revolution, the Salon opened to all French artists, though academicians retained control through much of the 19th century. Its influence waned after the Société des Artistes Français took over in 1881 and as independent avant-garde exhibitions gained prominence.
