The exhibition "America. New visions from the old world" is the continuation of a first graphic project by Demián Flores (Juchitán, Oaxaca, 1971) entitled Collateral disasters, series of eighty-three prints published in 2012, for which he used Francisco de la Guerra's disasters as a base Goya On this occasion, Demián delivers a new body of fifty-four graphic works and an installation, divided into four series: The Good Savage, Anthropophagy, The Destruction of the Indies and America. Work that is abbreviated in the illustrations of Theodor De Bry, a 16th century editor and engraver originally from Liege in present-day Belgium, who made a large production of prints on the American continent without ever having traveled to these territories. Almost five centuries away, Theodor De Bry's work reads as a visual construction of the American affair from the European imaginary, an iconographic reinterpretation that also served as a backdrop to launch a harsh criticism of the expansion of the Spanish Crown in the Northern Europe, through raw images about the Iberian conquest of territories in the New World. Demián replicates that underlying intention in De Bry's work, creating his own images populated with signs, symbols and visual notes. The palimpsest created by Demián on the work of De Bry, forms a new narrative to cite recent history in Mexico, specifically the acts of violence that afflict our society today and that seem to be the product of a new conquestʺ, a modern "Colonization" carried out by organized crime, whose virulence takes over territories and people with the same ferocity as that of the conquerors of America in the 16th century

"Rigoberto Díaz Julián has juxtaposed two texts: written instructions for police for the use of force and images from a 2016 confrontation between police and protesters in Oaxaca, Mexico. The protesters were blocking a highway, demonstrating against President Nieto's educational reforms, and by the end of the protest 8 people would be killed by firearms. Throughout Nochixtlán, the instructional text moves through different levels of force used by police: verbal deterrence, physical restraint, use of non-lethal weapons, and use of lethal weapons"--Adapted from Printed Matter Web site.

"This visual archive is shaped by photographs taken since the year 2010 from the evening newspaper P.M., published in Ciudad Juarez, Mexico. The brutal images of corpses and dismembered bodies have been meticulously eliminated with a rubber eraser, generating an accumulation of waste that alludes metaphorically to the ashes of a life that is no longer here."--Publisher's website.
