Description: La Bienal en Resistencia (BeR) is a proposal by Proyecto 44 and CARTI (Central de Artivismo e Innovación), both projects from Guatemala, led respectively by Maya Juracán (curator and activist) and Gustavo García Solares (communicator and audiovisual narrator). Based in Guatemala, the the first edition (2019) brought together more than 40 Latin American artists presenting projects with a strong political, feminist and dissident charge while using the art platform to generate, in community, dialogues with the ability to highlight problems, themes and social exercises. This artistic catalogue compiles and documents the whole process behind the first edition of BeR held in 2019. Through this book it is possible to trace the curatorial process, the conformation of the work team, the artistic and performance exhibitions that took place throughout October 2019, data on the works and their creators; likewise, the follow-up appears through the various media that covered the BeR 2019. For the second edition they selected the project Central Marginal by the Dominican collective Suspicious Package. Central Marginal is a project focus on the arts education in the Caribbean region.
