The collective exhibition You are breathing in it! Alternative Art Practices explores the latest practices and tendencies of the contemporary art in several geographical locations: Riverside, Los Angeles, San Jose and Chicago in the USA; Tijuana in Mexico and San Juan in Puerto Rico.

Thanks to installations, photographs, drawings, sculptures and videos, the exhibition aims at showing that the artist studio is not the only place of artistic production. The exhibition curator Karla Diaz chose artists who turned streets, the public space, apartments, stores, nightclubs or other places into their place of creation. The artist studio is sometimes a closed space forbidding interactions… On the contrary the artists who are exhibited here seek a greater reactivity and implication on the part of the community where they place their art. Art needs meetings, conversations and exchanges to extend.
