More than the actual candy is the wrapping that matters. After all, a balloon is just nothingness covered in rubber. Wrapping trees in stories about chairs. Drawings in the sand, graffiti on walls, price tags, logos on your clothes. Lines of flight on the surface of the world. We live inside an arrow storm. Everything has a purpose and a destination. Jumping from stone to stone to stone to stone to stone… And it’s all danced out and we all play nice with each other. We play being humans who play be ing boys and girls who play being doctors playing consultation. Like onion skins, a matryoshka or a fractal pattern. Though you have to admit that fractals don’t go as well with cheese and bacon. To make ourselves understood we’ve engaged in a thorough process of rolling dices, jumping in one leg, smelling the walls and looking at things upside down and we have revealed exclusively for you the

Spiral inward. Follow I line of text to its source. Inhale, but understand exhalation is mandatory. A tributary flows into a larger body. A branch grows out from a main axis. Either way there is a whole and the parts of a whole and movement, always movement. A gesture towards merging. – Ginger Teppner

QiPO Fair is an international contemporary art event organized by members of the QiPO curatorial collective in partnership with Reurbano during Art Fair Week in Mexico City. QiPO Fair 02, happening February 6-9, 2020, will feature proposal by alternative and artist-run spaces, and curatorial and artist collectives from Mexico and around the world. This event will again take place in uninhabited, repurposed spaces at the “Gaona”, an exquisite, Neocolonial building constructed during the Porfiriato period in Mexico City’s Historic Center situated within walking distance from notable galleries and major art events happening simultaneously. QiPO Fair is a multi-project exhibition conceived and designed to provide amplified exposure to the vibrant artist-run initiatives and independent projects from contemporary art cities around the world. Not so much a radical departure, we hope this showcase will provide an unconventional and refreshing context to the city’s more “official” events. The QiPO collective is a project of Fulcrum Arts’ Emerge fiscal sponsorship program.
