Hazlo con otrxs. Youth, Argentinian Fanzines, and Echoes of Resistance

Recovering, documenting, and analyzing fanzines made by young people in Mendoza, Argentina, since the 1990s helps to understand the diverse experience of youth political engagement. This exhibition focuses on zine production during two periods of intense social mobilisation in Argentina: the economic and social crisis of the late 1990s, and the wave of feminist mobilisation over the past decade. 

The zine scene offers a lens through which to explore young people’s political commitments and the ways in which their political and cultural practices are shaped. It reveals how generational experiences rooted in local contexts resonate with, and engage in dialogue with, those of young people in other places and times. Fanzines invite us to consider the echoes of youth political demands and practices across borders and historical moments, from the past through the present and into possible futures.

With this selection, we invite you to reflect on continuities, changes, and ruptures in the ways in which young people articulate their political position through fanzines.
