title Search: General Viewdescription Chicago-based artist Inigo Manglano-Ovalle proposed a transformation of the bullring at Playas de Tijuana for inSITE2000. Working on a scale indicative of the vast site, Manglano-Ovalle transformed the bullring into a large radio telescope searching for "aliens." Titled Search/En Busqueda the piece functioned as a listening device searching the atmosphere for any discernible noise made by aliens. A suspended antenna above a receiving dish located at ground level of the bullring would pick up sounds that in turn would be broadcast, along with the white sound of listening, on speakers surrounding the bullring, as well as on FM radio and the web. The notion of possible contact with aliens both at the border and in space made the piece, according to the artist, "a global event, possibly cosmic." --inSITE2000 Plaza de Toros Monumental de Aguascalientes (Aguascalientes, Mexico) Science, Technology and Industry Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 310, Folder 02, Item 228) Tijuana, Playas de, Baja California Norte, Mexico [Title, Date].

Kiosko Esotérico: Kiosk Outside The Centro Cultural In Tijuana
title Kiosko Esotérico: Kiosk Outside The Centro Cultural In Tijuanadescription Architecture and City Planning Centro Cultural Tijuana Decorative Arts, Utilitarian Objects and Interior Design For inSITE97, Pablo Vargas Lugo constructed "Esoteric Kiosk/Kiosko Esotérico," a futuristic piece of portable architecture with fake newspapers displaying fantastical imagery. Installed outside the Centro Cultural Tijuana, the kiosk was open for public viewing everyday and folded up each night to convey a sense of secrecy about its contents. The structure was divided into four sections showing two intersecting images, each referencing scientific discoveries about extraterrestrial life and life inside the core of planet Earth. Vargas Lugo related the images of the discoveries to images of heaven and hell, creating a work that functioned as an altarpiece, advertisement, and newspaper stand. --inSITE97 Sculpture and Installations Special Collections & Archives, UC San Diego, La Jolla, 92093-0175 (https://lib.ucsd.edu/sca) This image is a scan of a 35mm color slide from the InSite Archive (MSS 707, Box 311, Folder 01, Item 392) [Title, Date].
