Title: Un lugar bajo el sol y otros ensayos
Description: Sergio Raúl Arroyo proposes in this collection of essays a connection between the fragments of a cultural archipelago, in which art, museums and public space confront the individual with the collective phenomena of modernity. Through his writing and the images that make up each text, a reading is drawn that gives an account of the relationships and circumstances that involve works, exhibitions and phenomena of a changing world. This book is not made up of isolated segments, it is a constellation of themes and places that describe a vital itinerary, a set of worlds connected by the persistence of images and the gaze. A place under the sun is a testimony not devoid of cosmopolitanism, of passing through multiple territories of culture, where writing is the privileged instrument, capable of giving life to a critical horizon that crosses Mexican antiquity until it is deployed in different scenarios of the world contemporary where the improbable and the everyday coexist.
