"María Teresa Hincapié vino del teatro, del cual se alejó - tras un largo e intenso ejercicio - al comprobar que en cierto modo le establecía límites que coartaban una necesidad expresiva que rebasaba la noción convencional de »espectáculo«. Es por eso que la dimensión temporal es crucial en toda su obra: las ocho horas del horario laboral, los cuarenta días del ayuno bíblico, las doce horas del día o de la noche, la peregrinación de 21 días al sitio arqueológico precolombino de San Agustín. Con ello intenta decir que el arte requiere de un real involucramiento"

Born 1960 in New York, New York; lives in New York.
Coco Fusco is an interdisciplinary artist, writer, and curator whose practice includes video, performance, and lectures. Born to Cuban and Italian parents, she often explores the dialogue between identity, globalization, technology, gender, and race. In the quasi-documentary film a/k/a Mrs. George Gilbert (2004), she navigates the racial politics dictating the FBI’s intense 1970 hunt for African-American activist Angela Davis. Fusco focused on the subtleties of hierarchy and power as co-curator of Only Skin Deep: Changing Visions of the American Self, a photography exhibition organized by New York’s International Center of Photography in 2003 illustrating how images construct and perpetuate racialized vision.
