Swannatopia Presents: A flipthrough of the collaborative zine created in response to the Abraham Cruzvillegas Call for Sculpture. This zine culminated the Bizarre Sábado Event Series, hosted by Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center in partnership with Swannatopia's Experimental Art Club. The Abraham Cruzvillegas Call for Sculpture was presented in conjunction with the exhibition Black Mountain College and Mexico (June 2 – September 9, 2023) at Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center.
"...At the end, the final works should belong to the persons who will make them, both materially and in terms of authorship, and my drawings will
just be a reference, and nothing else."
-Abraham Cruzvillegas
Swannatopia presents: Call For Sculpture, students of all ages and all media
Swannatopia presenta: Apertura para escultura, alumnos de todas edades y todos materiales
“in conjunction with the BMC/MX exhibition, and in the spirit of collaboration, we are looking for groups of artists to engage with visual prompts offered by contemporary Mexican artist Abraham Cruzvillegas.”
"Junto con la exhibición de BMC/MX, y con la intención de colaboración, estamos buscando a grupos de artistas para empeñarse a crear una obra inspirada por temas visuales ofrecidos por el artista contemporaneo mexicano Abraham Cruzvillegas."
