The Artists Roundtable: Minerva Cuevas

The Artists Roundtable, an international forum for leading practitioners, is hosted by Kate Fowle, faculty member of the MA Curatorial programs at the School of Visual Arts in New York City.

Minerva Cuevas creates research-based projects that encompass installation, street interventions, muralism, and sculpture. Her work explores notions of civilization and progress, identifies resistance implicit in everyday life, and questions our political imaginary. Through her projects, she provides insights into economic and political organizational structures in the social sphere and facilitates channels of social communication. Cuevas founded Mejor Vida Corp. in 1998 and the International Understanding Foundation (IUF) in 2016, and has collaborated on projects providing telecommunications access to indigenous communities. Her work is held in collections such as the Tate Gallery; Centre Georges Pompidou; Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum; Museum Ludwig; Museo Jumex; and Van Abbemuseum. She is based in Mexico City.
