Narcolandia is not going to stop the violence or the corruption or the abuses of power or the loss of liberties. It is only an acknowledgement that things are out of control. It is an attempt to make visible images that are being swept under the rug and relegated to the occasional report http://projects.latimes.com/mexico-drug-war/#/its-a-war As artists, when we don't know what to do, we make art.
Narcolandia is the blog for the art show taking place September 5 - 22 at COAGULA CURATORIAL 977 Chung King Rd. With a SABADO GIGANTE OPENING SEPTEMBER 15th. The show is a visual dialogue between Los Angeles, San Francisco and San Diego artists relating to the Narco Corrido, Narco Culture and the ongoing drug war in Mexico, California and the world.
