Rompe Puesto: Highlighting & Deconstructing Piñatas Created by 23 NYC Artists

BRAC celebrated the New Year with ROMPE PUESTO, a one-night, celebratory performance event highlighting and deconstructing piñatas created by 23 NYC artists and artist groups. Participants were invited to take a swing, in hopes of collecting the artistic contents inside each piñata.

Organized by Blanka Amezkua and Ronny Quevedo
With Sounds by DJ Juan Mapu

Friday, January 8, 2010 (7 - 10pm) - FREE

ARTISTS:
damali abrams, Fanny Allie & Jun Aizaki, Gabriela Alva Cal y Mayor, Daniel Bejar, Melissa A. Calderón, Alex Campaz, Brendan Carroll, Abigail Deville, Oasa Duverney, Michelle Frick, Front Unifié de Libération Nationale d'Haïti (FULNH), Irvin Morazan, Ivan Monforte, Las Hermanas Iglesias, Laura Napier, Wanda Ortiz, Olek & Blanka Amezkua, Risa Puno, Kenya (Robinson), Jorge Rojas, Jessica Rosen, Ronny Quevedo, Mary Valverde

ROMPE PUESTO loosely translates into "breaking ground". In this scenario, the artists and the organizers use the cathartic act of celebration to foster new alternatives to exhibit, perform, congregate, and collaborate.
