House of Political Horrors

[Radio Announcer] Take advantage of the resources.

Because this is another strategic place mat

on the grand chessboard.

Where are your credentials?

[Radio Announcer] They want to do the same thing here...

Passengers I need you to step out of the vehicle please.

Step right this way.

Watch your step and go all the way out.

And right this way, follow me please.

Follow the instructions, right down with us, let's go.

(several people speaking at once)

[Shadow] Hi guys.

Humor is like a kind of needle that pops

or overinflate an idea, you know, like sometimes

there are things that you take too seriously

and we mock them.

Good to see you.

Hi, good to see you.

I'm going to tell you about the chocolates.

[Art Viewer Male] It's kind of cool, right?

[Art Viewer Woman] (mumbles)

[Pedro Reyes] For instance, this particular project,

what has been very interesting is that

we are working as a team

and then something horrible appears in the news.

And then oh, it suddenly becomes great material

for the project.

(introspective music)

It's a break about fear so,

so lot out there that work with.

(several people talking)

[Installation Actor] Would someone here

would be a terrorist?

Art is a wonderful thing that

allows you to deal with

things that otherwise would be untractable, or just

a downer.

[Installation Actress] Have you ever held a gun before?

[Installation Actor] Yes.

[Installation Actress] Doesn't it give you

a sense of security?

It's interesting because

I was studying lady of terror and horror

and also looking at monsters as a way

how in the past we have spoke about fears.

But here, in this haunted house,

we are addressing those monsters

without the disguise.

Now in 2060, we've increased the temperature

by 10 more degrees.

[Pedro Reyes] Something is keeping people at wake

at night, this type of history is politics.

And art is one of the last fields of human activity

where these curses not controlled.

As an artist, your job is to have a critical position.

So in that way, you know like a,

you can only do your work right

if you stick it to the man.
