BIBLIOTECA SOCIAL RECONSTRUIR - BSR - ARCHIVE & LETTERS, 2009

FROM THE BSR SERIES

Archive of documents from Internet & letters written by me to different art institutions, curators and artists. Binded with black sandpaper covers. 8X10 inches.

The BSR  is an anarchist and social libertarian library founded in 1978 in Mexico City by Ricardo Mestre, a Catalonian anarchist exiled in Mexico. After his death in 1997, Tobi and Martha (with a background in the punk scene) continued to auto-organize the BSR. The counter cultural movement, specifically punk, retrieves anarchist thought disseminating it and making it once more a tool box for contemporary life. Since may of last 2009, due to a legal demand for not paying rent, the BSR has been sitting until today (30-April-2010) in a small flat in boxes and Tobi and Martha under a civil lawsuit.
