In 2009, General Motors filed for bankruptcy, deepening the financial collapse in the US and beyond. For Guatemalan artist Regina Jos茅 Galindo, economic globalization ensures that 鈥渢he origin of the crisis for some鈥s the origin of the crisis for all.鈥 Staged five years following the collapse, her two-hour durational performance addressed the increasing interconnectedness of our global age.
This performance formed part of the exhibition 鈥淧ermission To Be Global/Pr谩cticas Globales: Latin American Art from the Ella Fontanals-Cisneros Collection.鈥
