2011 – in progress

La Mesa de las Ediciones del Exotismo Ordinario Internacional Neotropical is an ongoing project taking shape as a series of non sequential photocopied booklets of variable formats, based on the research about the house plants group named Exotismo Ordinario Internacional Neotropical. The research articulates various tracks focusing on Neotropical region: gardening, botany, revolutions, literature, clandestine organizations, and organisational systems. The sources of documents are collected through various secondhand bookstores.
La Mesa de las Ediciones del Exotismo Ordinario Internacional Neotropical will be updated following the research development. The new elements will join the board and will be articulated with the existing ones. The already existing elements can be rearranged if necessary. The artists will carry out themselves the increase, or if their presence is not possible, will send new items with precise instructions for the new arrangement.
