Art21 | PBS

documentary, 56 min, 2020

Rava Films is proud to partner with Art21 to explore the motivations and aspirations of several artists working along the U.S.-Mexico border. At a time when immigrants and Indigenous peoples are constantly dehumanized across the country, Tanya Aguiñiga, Richard Misrach, Postcommodity, and Rafael Lozano-Hemmer work to accentuate humanity’s resilience along the border through a multitude of mediums. By interweaving these characters, their art, and their stories, BORDERLANDS / LA FRONTERA explores the border as a place, an idea, and a barrier with real human and political implications.
