PRODUCTORA participates in the exhibition “Re-Sources“ at Storefront for Art and Architecture in NYC.Drawing upon its material and social resources, the exhibition invites 26 architects and designers who have worked with Storefront in its recent history to create new works with leftover and surplus items from its office, gallery, and storage spaces. PRODUCTORA produces a sculpture with sticks, poles and pipes found in Storefront’s basement: broomsticks, galvanized pipes, mob handles, extension poles, floor scrapers and snow shovels. Hereby they pay tribute to the continuous labor of cleaning, repairing, servicing and maintaining the facility over the years. The trophy-like composition, with a playful wink to Boris Iofan's Palace of the Soviets (1931-33), brings up the complex linkage in the actual political discourse between the recognition of labor rights and the farcical accusations of socialism. . From November 21, 2020 until march 30, 2021, NYC, USA.

PRODUCTORA participates in “Unlake City - Where there was a lake now there is a city”, an exhibition running from January 28 until 21 March 2017 at the Aedes Gallery in Berlin. Curated by Miquel Adrià and Alejandro Hernández Gálvez, the exhibition's title UNLAKECITY alludes to the transformation that took place over the centuries in the valley of Mexico. The term makes reference to 'un lago', a lake and 'unlake', the process of disappearance of the lake through a constant "urban dehydration".

The second section shows projects of public space, not only understood as squares or parks, but including cultural buildings and public institutions, such as museums, schools, markets and hospitals. Each thematic focus briefly describes the history, and shows some present conditions and takes a glance into future projects, with some utopian ideas but also that are already under construction. Besides maps, plans and photographs, the exhibition showcases a topographic model of the valley of Mexico that presents the current hydrological conditions, a video which shows the transformation of the city during the past five hundred years, and a series of interviews with Mexican architects, urbanists and intellectuals.

The exhibition celebrates 50 years of A.UD alumni and faculty work and includes drawings by Hitoshi Abe, Diego Arraigada, Erin Besler, Tom Buresh, Steven Christensen, Neil Denari, Gabriel Fries-Briggs, Craig Hodgetts, Georgina Huljich, Julia Koerner, Jimenez Lai, Mark Mack, Elena Manferdini, Narineh Mirzaeian, Marta Nowak, Guvenc Ozel, David A. Ross, Mohamed Sharif, Tom Wiscombe and many others… Opening reception Monday, April 20 from 6 to 9 pm at the Perloff Gallery, UCLA."Working drawings embody a more complicated aesthetics of utility, where formal decisions are motivated by consequences in the world. Although it is theoretically feasible, I am not sure that it is actually possible to make a good building with bad drawings. It is precisely by not searching for formal or aesthetic effect but rather by solving specific problems that working drawings paradoxically succeed as aesthetic or formal artifacts." Stan Allen, "Master Plans: Stan Allen on Architects’ Drawings", ArtForum, Jan 2015.

This is an exhibition that is simultaneously a brief history of some of the early influential voices of the School of Architecture at UM, and a collection of works by emerging, noteworthy architects from around the world. All of the work in the exhibition can be related through their approaches to drawing and instructional method. The use of ordinary, universally appealing structures, and deceptively simple buildings that originate in geometric form are the basis of design for the architects exhibited. This approach not only links their work visually, but also theoretically, as the ever-present forms in their tool boxes hold intrinsically significant meaning and architectural power. The exhibition is on view in the Korach Gallery in the Perez Architecture Center, Monday through Friday, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. The opening of the exhibition will take place April 8 in conjunction with Roberto Behar’s Call to Order lecture on Building Stories: Some Works by R&R Studios, which begins at 6:30 p.m. in Glasgow Hall. The exhibition will run through the summer. PRODUCTORA shows the 'House of Arts and Culture in Beirut'.

On April 8, 2014 PRODUCTORA's exhibition 'In Between Projects' will open its doors at The WEDGE Gallery, Woodbury School of Architecture in Burbank (Los Angeles), California. In the exhibition PRODUCTORA is presenting 9 un-built projects that have a clear relation to geometry and mathematical composition. Large-scale models, made in collaboration with students at Woodbury University are presented together with black and white CAD drawings that clarify the main conceptual aspect of the building. The simple positioning of the framed drawings, renderings and wooden models on the exhibition floor, avoids all museographic rhetoric and presents the work as autonomous objects in space. The title 'In Between Projects' relates to the ongoing development of a common formal vocabulary that underlies the circumstantial aspects of each individual project. This exploration is presented through an image loop of preliminary study models of the projects presented. Ultimately, the exhibition underscores the studio's belief that strong geometric compositions and clearly legible buildings allow architecture to maintain its value through unpredictable shifts in context and program over time. The exhibition is curated by Donatella Cusmá and Bojána Bányász, faculty at the School of Architecture and principals at Claret-Cup. Participating students are: Francisco Salgado, Roger Garcia, Jeanna Casale, Tecola Robinson, Chelsea Cammarata, Yumin Zeng, Casaundra Quackenbush, Isle Keijser, Melania Gourehzar, Mitzi Hernandez, Maria Belen Avigliano, Shabnam Peida, Annette Chang,, Meng Ting Sun (Jojo), Narine Ataian, Omar Montelongo, Stephen Nguyen, Alena Eisen, Adileni Lopez.

The exhibition 'Manual de Montaje'or 'Assembly Manual' at ARCHIVO in Mexico City will open it's doors on December 17th, 2012. The exhibition is curated and designed by PRODUCTORA and explores the tectonics of the objects that surround us. ®This interest in tectonics, or 'how things are put together', is certainly a crucial issue that the discipline is fascinated with. We are interested in how the architectural notion of 'the poetics of construction' can be applied to industrial design and the objects that surround us. (...) In this exhibition we are also interested in the drawing as crucial within design, an unavoidable link in the process of object production. Nevertheless, far from gloating in the singularity of the artistic and conceptual drawings of famous designers we often see in design museums, our interest lies in the anonymous drawing: the assembly instructions, the cutting patterns or the instruction manual.® Opening, drinks and music on December 17th at 19.00 h at ARCHIVO (General Francisco RamÌrez 4, Col. Ampliación Daniel Garza, México D.F. 11840, Tel. 52 (55) 2614 1063).

PRODUCTORA collaborated with Iñaki Bonillas in his latest project 'The Encyclopedia Of The Dead' which is currently at view at the Galerie Nordenhake in Berlin. The architectonic support consisted in the development of a ficticious library for the protagonist of The Posthumous Memoirs of Braz Cubas (1880), a novel by Brazilian author Machado de Assis.
