On October 18, 2022 at 6 p.m. in the Thaer-Saal at Invalidenstr. 42 of the Humboldt University in Berlin the opening of the photo exhibition by the Mexican artist Daniel Orozco will be displayed. The exhibition will be on view until the end of October.<\/p>\n
With his photos the artist addresses the cultivation of corn in the indigenous pur\u00e9pecha region and brings us closer to one of the most important celebrations, K’uanichitskua. The technological shift in the region, from traditional corn cultivation to the high-tech cultivation of fruit for export, is reflected in the changes at this most important celebration. All aspects of social life are affected: nutrition, culture, migration, gender relations and, last but not least, changes in social relations to nature.<\/p>\n
