The exhibition proposes a critical reading of the visual archive compiled throughout the ten years of life of Laboratorio Arte Alameda from Mexico City—a space committed with the exhibition, documentation and research of the practices that engage and dialogue with the relationship between art and technology in the city. The core axis of (Ready) Media revolves around art practices using media and technology, as well as the aesthetic-political questionings that said practice has aroused in Mexico since the early years of the twenty-first century.

In December of last year, Republican Congressmen John Boehner and Eric Cantor ordered the removal of an artwork from the National Portrait Gallery’s Hide/Seek exhibit at the Smithsonian claiming that it was "an outrageous use of taxpayer money and an obvious attempt to offend Christians during the Christmas season." Major museum funders threatened to pull their money out in protest. The director of the National Portrait Gallery resigned. The piece in question is “A Fire in My Belly”, a short film meditation on the ravages of HIV and AIDS made in 1986 by artist David Wojnarowicz. Hear in the City Art and Film Contributor, Jesse Lerner has this take on how other museums are protesting the censorship by the Smithsonian.
