The Isolation Interviews are a weekly series of conversations with artists and curators that will explore how these new circumstances are affecting their practices, projects and productivity. We’ll hear how they are finding solutions-and even opportunities-and what their plans and hopes are for the future.  \nBrooke Benington is committed to supporting and creating opportunities for artists. We believe that this is needed now more than ever. Most artists are  \nself-employed, often supplementing their income by working as technicians, fabricators, assistants, teachers and a whole host of other jobs. Now, many have very suddenly lost a vital source of income. With this in mind, we are accompanying each Isolation Interview with a curated selection of work by that artist, available for purchase.  \nThank you for your continued support. Stay safe and look after one another.  \nLily & George  \nDirectors, Brooke Benington  \n3  \nYou’re based in Mexico, currently in Mexico City. How is the artistic community in the city coping? Are there signs of people finding creative ways to be productive, make and share their art?  \nThe artistic community in Mexico City is both resourceful and resilient. It is a thriving community that has adapted quickly to the hardest circumstances and has learnt to produce in precariousness for a long time. It is also a solidary community that supports itself and others with new initiatives and ways to continue with production, virtual exhibition and selling; fostering the development of new dynamics within these hard circumstances.  \nSeveral strategies and actions have been taken by artists groups to support the local society in all possible ways. I can think of Carlos Amorales’ studio that crafted hundreds of face masks in conjunction with his gallery kurimanzutto, these were given to the most vulnerable workers in the city. Other tremendous action came from curator Mauricio Maillé who led a team that organised @  \nfotospormexico, an initiative that sold photographs by more than 150 artists and whose income was donated entirely to the  \nInstituto Nacional de Ciencias Médicas y Nutrición Salvador Zubirán, one of the hospitals in the city that treats COVID patients.  \nLikewise, @ObreraCentro and artist Marcos Castro has produced Dibujes para Colorear, two colouring books  \nwith drawings from both emerging and consolidated artists in the country, a powerful tool to help people with anxiety during lockdown. Besides dozens of creators, curators, academics and galleries that present virtual studio visits as well as online conferences and interviews every day, various artists have organised themselves to sell and promote their work online or via Instagram in enterprises like @sssoporte, @arteporlatangente or @ tajotaller with auction schemes and other innovative designs to display and present their work. On the commercial front, nine galleries launched \\#Plataforma2020, an online selling platform that aims to reduce the negative economic impact of the lockdown by presenting works together and sharing the sales profits while donating 10% to similar initiatives.  \nThe artist community in Mexico is also very active politically. In the last months, some fronts have been created  \n4  \nLEFT  \nUntitled by Jannis Kounellis at Casa Wabi, Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca, Mexico  \nor activated with all members from the community to demand for better opportunities before the country’s Ministry of Culture, an office that has been short in developing a substantial and comprehe","cbCainNf2F9lC9Br","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCainNf2F9lC9Br","pdf",947033,1,9,"English","en",105,"# Brooke Benington - Directors’ note\n## Purpose of the weekly Isolation Interviews\n# Interview: Alberto Ríos de la Rosa\n## Mexico City artistic community coping strategies\n## Adaptation of curatorial practice amid restrictions","[{\"question\":\"What is the goal of Isolation Interviews Issue 12?\",\"answer\":\"It aims to keep sharing favorite art and artists through weekly conversations while addressing how isolation affects artists and curators’ work.
