Artist Talk for The Border is a Weapon - Moderated by Joze Diaz

In our surprise final finalé episode, we bring you the audio recording from the Artist Talk for the Border is a Weapon Exhibition, moderated by Jose Diaz - the former Chief Curator at the Andy Warhol Museum. It took place February 22, 2022 over zoom to an audience of about 50-60 people. All artists were present except Daniela Cavazos Madrgial and Tereneh Idia who were not available that evening. At that point the exhibition The Border is a Weapon, curated by Gil Rocha at 937 Gallery in Pittsburgh, PA had been open almost a month and had been seen by thousands including the opening night that was packed and overflowing with people.

This conversation flowed easily between the artists and Jose Diaz. It serves now as an important historic document of a show that continues to grow and travel, most recently it was shown at the Laredo Center for the Arts, summer 2022, and will continue to the University of Syracuse later in 2023.
