Colectivo Los Ingrávidos emerged as a radical audiovisual form of resistance in Mexico in 2012. Their work draws transhistorical connections across time combining found footage with digital glitches and documentary poetry. Almudena Escobar López is Time-Based Media Curatorial Assistant at the Memorial Art Gallery. She has been collaborating with Colectivo Los Ingrávidos since she co-programmed their work as part of the Flaherty NYC series in 2018. After a short screening including a few pieces from the collective, Escobar López will be in conversation with Colectivo Los Ingrávidos to discuss the relationships between collectivism, radical politics, and image-making.The VSW Film Series is made possible by the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew M. Cuomo and the New York State Legislature, and by the ArtWorks program of the National Endowment for the Arts.
