First Survey Exhibition of these artists 

EDELO brings together new and existing works emerging from their collaborative and individual 15-year explorations into the roles art can play in radical modes of community building and social, political, and economic change.

EDELO features video, sculpture, installation, and performance works, many of which have never before seen in an art institutional context, which together show the trajectory of  the artists’ collaborative practice since 2009. That year, Rollow and Duarte repurposed the abandoned United Nations building in San Cristóbal de las Casa, Chiapas, Mexico, renaming it EDELO (En Donde Era La ONU/ Where the United Nations Used to Be). The building had been abandoned by the UN after displaced indigenous community members occupied its offices.
