La Periferia (2007-2011)

"The birth of a project like La Periferia in southeastern Mexico can be explained from two events: 1) The creation of educational options in the state, at a professional level, in art and 2) The lack of institutional spaces to present the work of young, emerging artists or art students. In this context is that La Periferia was founded on September 15th, 2007. ... The core of La Periferia is the Laboratorio Dzityá Documentation Center (CDLD) which is an extensive archive that collects information on the Yucatán Visual Arts Biennial, short film contests, sound art festivals, independen events, and artworks from students and graduates of UADY and ESAY as well as other local artists ...This catalog includes the work of La Periferia from September 2007 to October 2011."--Pages 9-10.
