No Time to Mourn (An Excerpt): A Performance and Conversation with Elia Arce

Costa Rican performance artist Elia Arce will present No Time to Mourn (An Excerpt) followed by a conversation with artist Jackie Amezquita and researcher Jasmine Magaña. Arce’s performance continues her ongoing commitment to creating “living monuments,” works that approach memory as collective actions and communally-produced experiences. The conversation following the performance will reflect on No Time to Mourn and its previous iterations, trace the evolution of Arce’s socially engaged performance art and activist theater in Southern California, and explore material and thematic connections between her practice and the work of a younger generation of artists from the Central American diaspora.

This event is organized by REDCAT and the Getty Research Institute’s Latin American and Latinx Art Initiative, which seeks to facilitate research on Latin American art with a focus on Central America and its diaspora.

No Time to Mourn is part of the REDCAT curatorial research Visions of the nahuales: shape-changers in real time made possible by Teiger Foundation.
