Located less than a mile from Juárez, the Stanlee and Gerald Rubin Center for Visual Arts at the University of Texas at El Paso is a non-collecting institution that serves the Paso del Norte region. In Curating at the Edge, Kate Bonansinga brings to life her experiences as the Rubin’s founding director, giving voice to a curatorial approach that reaches far beyond the limited scope of “border art” or Chicano art. Instead, Bonansinga captures the creative climate of 2004–2011, when contemporary art addressed broad notions of destruction and transformation, irony and subversion, gender and identity, and the impact of location on politics.

Seit über 25 Jahren präsentiert die Künstlerin ihre scharf formulierten Ideen und Argumente. Ihre berühmten elektronischen Texte und Zeichenanordnungen zitieren in ihrer jüngsten Arbeit freigegebene Geheimdienstpapiere zur US-Außenpolitik. Holzer erforscht den "Krieg" gegen den Terrorismus, die Folgen des 11. Septembers und die daraus entstandene Debatte von Spionage und Spionageabwehr. Für den Titel von Buch und Ausstellung verwendet sie den Leitsatz der CIA von 1968. Neben den Essays von Maurice Berger, Peter Glotz und Eckhard Schneider sind ausgewählte Texte aus freigegebenen US-Regierungsdokumenten und Höhepunkte aus Holzers eigenen Texte abgedruckt, ebenso das Gedicht. >To the Forty-third President
For a three-week performance in Portland, Oregon in 2007, artist Corin Hewitt constructed an elaborate enclosed set. The space combined a kitchen with a photo studio and a live theater. Over the course of the exhibition, Hewitt worked inside the set ¿ cooking, sculpting, heating & cooling, casting, eating, and weaving ¿ as gallery visitors peeked in through a slit in the wall. The performance merged iconography of the contemporary and historic Northwest, creating hybrid objects and images out of basketry, totems, fabric, canned food, fresh vegetables, grasses and other materials. Along with these items, Hewitt incorporated a selection of objects and images from his own personal history, as well as from the first performance in this ongoing series. The seventy-five color photographs in this book, all made by Hewitt during the performance, document the making and reworking of the various materials. Superimposing the touristic and the personal, the organic and the inorganic, the object and its image, Hewitt creates a body of work that intimately interrogates the cycles of transformation and transience.
