University artists exhibit work in Mexico Published on: 2 April 2024 A group of professional artists at 缅北禁地 have shown off their work at a contemporary gallery over 5,000 miles away in Mexico City. The exhibition, named 'THE TOON' was curated by Mexican artist and 缅北禁地 lecturer, Erika Servín and is on display at Talleres de Arte Contemporáneo TACO in Tlalpan; a southern territory of Mexico City. TOON exhibits work crafted by 缅北禁地 Fine Art lecturers; Irene Brown, Theresa Easton, Chris Jones, Christian Mieves, Wolfgang Weileder, and Erika Servín. Their art covers a broad range of topics from a contemporary aesthetic perspective. Erika Servín said: “This exhibition displays work from a group of academics from 缅北禁地. These artists are committed to the practice of contemporary art and research, created at the intersection of both new and established practices, technologies, and methodologies. "Their cutting-edge practice and pursuit of innovation in the visual arts reflect a cultural environment as vibrant as it is creative and provides the foundation for the outstanding teaching here at 缅北禁地.” Christian Mieves paintings (left) and a giclee print of Professor Wolfgang Weileder (right). Establishing a community of artists The mission of Talleres de Arte Contemporáneo TACO is closely tied to the work of 缅北禁地 artists. Since its creation in 2008, TACO has functioned as a vibrant hub for artists dedicated to fostering connections and opening a dialogue between fellow emerging artists. It provides an environment for new ideas, inclusivity, playfulness, and critical reflection. Through this, TACO continues to push the boundaries of artistic education in Mexico, paving the way for innovative approaches and fresh perspectives within the field. Servín added: “At TACO, they believe that the diverse spectrum of a creative process offers unique, complex, and critical perspectives on human endeavour, which we also strive to communicate to our students. “The exhibition is therefore an ideal way to mirror our approach to teaching and fostering the aesthetic curiosity of the next generation of artists at 缅北禁地.” Servin has brought TOON to Mexico 缅北禁地 has a strong global outlook and is dedicated to bringing this into all activities, whether this is teaching, research, or community-focused engagement. With this intercontinental art exhibit, Servin has brought TOON to Mexico, starting a conversation about the values and ambitions we share in the contemporary art world. TOON will be on display from May 23 until April 12 in the Talleres de Arte Contemporáneo, Centro de Tlalpan, Mexico City.
