Tribute to the Disappeared
Curated by Andrea Arroyo
Tribute to the Disappeared is an art project that honors the men and women
disappeared in Mexico (from Juarez to Ayotzinapa), and other victims of
violence and injustice around the world. Just as the AIDS Memorial Quilt
brought attention to the AIDS epidemic, the project aims to bring public
attention to another epidemic -that of innocent lives lost to injustice, war,
poverty, and displacement. The project includes artwork related to forced
disappearances, as well as non-literal disappearances, carried out through
discrimination, injustice and violence.
Tribute to the Disappeared was co-founded by Andrea Arroyo after the
disappearance of 43 youths from Ayotzinapa in Mexico’s state of Guerrero
on September 26, 2014. The project has three public components: an online exhibition, a series of physical exhibitions and a series of community
workshops. To date, over 300 international artists and 13 organizations
and collectives are participating.

de vidas inocentes ante la injusticia, guerra, pobreza y desplazamiento. El
proyecto incluye obras de arte relacionadas con las desapariciones forzadas, así como las desapariciones no literales, llevadas a cabo a través de
discriminación, injusticia y violencia.
Tributo a los Desaparecidos fue co-fundado por Andrea Arroyo después de
la desaparición de 43 jóvenes de Ayotzinapa en el estado de Guerrero en
México el 26 de septiembre de 2014. El proyecto tiene tres componentes
comunes: una exposición en línea, una serie de exposiciones físicas y una
serie de talleres comunitarios. Hasta la fecha, más de 300 artistas internacionales y 13 organizaciones y colectivos están participando.
