Abstract in another language

Un mundo marcado cada vez más por las desigualdades, violencias y restricciones de movilidad, nos motivó a analizar fenómenos relacionados con las fronteras, sean políticas, geográficas, simbólicas, sociales, psicológicas o virtuales, que controlan cuerpos y regulan vidas. Dichos fenómenos se encuentran presentes en las fronteras internas y externas de muchos países latinoamericanos. En este texto planteamos que el arte de frontera está evidenciando la cromática del poder, (re)creando intersticios que desmantelan la estructura jerarquizada de separación. Nos referimos a proyectos que se nutren y retroalimentan de diversos discursos, acciones y posibilidades simbólicas, en zonas intersticiales de espacio y tiempo, caracterizadas por oposiciones antonímicas, como centro/periferia, superioridad/inferioridad o riqueza/pobreza. Estos proyectos se nombran como arte de frontera, comprendiendo como tal, aquél que procura reconocer y replantear cualquier tipo de límite, realizado por artistas que enfocan su interés en espacios impregnados de violencia, incomprensión, conflictos, diferencias, resentimientos y malentendidos.
Para analizar este acontecer seleccionamos las fronteras nacionales e intraurbanas pertenecientes a las ciudades de Tijuana (México) y Salvador de Bahía (Brasil).

Abstract in another language

A world increasingly marked by inequalities, violence and mobility restrictions motivated us to analyze phenomena related to boundaries, whether political, geographical, symbolic, social, psychological or virtual, that control bodies and regulate lives. These phenomena are present on the internal and external borders of many Latin American countries. In this text we propose that border art is evidencing the chromatics of power, (re)creating interstices that dismantle the hierarchical structure of separation.
We refer to projects that are nourished and fed back by various discourses, actions and symbolic possibilities, in interstitial zones of space and time, characterized by antonymic oppositions, such as center/periphery, superiority/inferiority or wealth/poverty. We understand border art as that which seeks to recognize and rethink any type of limit, carried out by artists who revolve around spaces impregnated with violence, misunderstanding, conflicts, differences, resentments and misunderstandings.
To analyze these phenomena, we focus on the national and intra-urban boundaries of Tijuana (Mexico) and Salvador da Bahia (Brazil).
