Hardcover. Condition: Good. 1st Edition. Hardcover, 144 pages, copiously illustrated, pictorial rear endpapers, NOT ex-library. Missing the front endpaper and half-title page (opens directly on the title page). interior is clean and bright, untanned, with unmarked text, free of inscriptions and stamps, firmly bound. Boards show…gentle handling wear. Issued without a dust jacket. -- This book documents a provocative interactive performance art project that toured major museums across the United States in the mid-1990s by Chicano performance artists Guillermo Gomez-Pena and Roberto Sifuentes. It captures the "border kitsch" aesthetic, using a riot of religious symbols and pop culture to explore the hybrid identity of the U.S.-Mexico border. -- This book is dedicated to the performance installation Temple of Confessions. The project was a satirical, pseudo-religious environment that critically examined American attitudes toward Mexican and Chicano culture, border politics, and the exoticisation of the Latino body. Presented as a bizarre temple filled with altars, relics, and living exhibits, the installation featured the artists themselves as 'living santos' and 'Mexican beasts,' inviting audience members to confess their stereotypes, fears, and fantasies through written notes, recorded messages, or direct interaction. The publication combines colour photographs of the installation and performances with scripts, artist writings, and critical commentary that explore themes of cultural identity, colonial desire, spirituality, and the politics of representation. The book is both a visual archive of the touring project and a theoretical reflection on Gómez-Peña and Sifuentes's distinctive style of border art and performance in the mid-1990s.
