Circulo de Voces by XENIA Rubinos
This Sunday the 3rd of December at 3pm Xenia Rubinos is going to be performing on the 3rd Floor at The Clemente in Room 309. Come use your voice together with her in an intimate setting and you’ll find what sounds they want to make. It’s a space to sing as a group, explore the sounds of our voices, sacar la voz en grupo and hear what’s there. There is space for 9 voices, RSVP at the link here. [UPDATE: RSVPS is now CLOSED]
Xenia Rubinos’ has been dreaming of a circle of voices for many months now and waiting to know more about what it means and since she still doesn’t know she figured she’d just do it and find out. Rubinos says “I think activating our voices as a collective can be healing, transformative and liberating. This summer Natalia Lassalle Murillo invited me to activate her diasporic choir. I thought it must’ve meant something that just as I was drawing circles in my notebook and “circulo de voces” came to mind again and again she reached out. I went and worked with a group of singers and non-singers alike, I helped lead us in using our voices together. It was magic. [I thought] I want to do it again!”
Now she’s doing it at The Clemente. She has room for 9 voices in the space. We look forward to welcome you to our space.

FESTIVAL CELEBRATION & AWARDS CEREMONY

TEATRO SEA & THE CLEMENTE, 107 SUFFOLK ST. NYC 10002
Celebrate BORIMIX: Puerto Rico Fest 2023- NYC’s Latinx cultural landmark event which features an array of events that include panels, films, theatre, literature, music and the visual arts. These events highlight the impact of Puerto Rican identity and arts & culture within the City, Nation, and Hemisphere, as it intersects with other Latinx identities. This year’s edition is dedicated to Uruguay.
Join us for our festival kick-off event at Teatro SEA and The Clemente! The evening begins with the BORIMIX Awards Ceremony honoring leaders in the Puerto Rican and Uruguayan community, and follows with the opening of our visual arts exhibitions, and special entertainment by Latin Artists. Don’t miss this fun-filled evening celebrating Puerto Rican arts and culture!
BORIMIX Puerto Rico Fest makes Puerto Rican arts accessible to a multi-ethnic and multi-generational audience, promoting creative collaboration between Latinx artists.
BORIMIX Puerto Rico Fest was established in 2006 by Clemente visual artist resident Miguel Trelles and Manuel Moran/Teatro SEA at The Clemente Soto Vélez Cultural & Educational Center in the Lower East Side. This November long festival showcases Puerto Rican and Latin American art in a range of mediums and disciplines.
Thanks to its partnership with The Clemente, BORIMIX has transformed Puerto Rican Heritage Month into a gathering of Puerto Rico’s diaspora artists with Latin Americans from all over New York. The Festival now takes place citywide and highlights the impact of the Puerto Rican/LatinX community on the arts and cultural life of the City, the Nation, and the Hemisphere.

Opening reception - BorGUAY: Sur; Off the grid
BORIGUAY: Sur - Abrazo Gallary
BORIGUAY: Off The Grid - Les Gallary
Date/Time: November 3rd: 6-9 pm
Location: LES and Abrazo Galleries
Curators: ‘Boriguay: Sur’ is co-curated by Gabriel DaSilvia (Gallary Labs) and Miguel Trelles
‘Boriguay: Off The Grid’ is curated by Sofia Reeser del Rio
Boriguay: Sur, opening in our Abrazo Gallery, is a group exhibition of Uruguayan and Puerto Rican artists coming together and honoring, in an unorthodox Borimix way, the remarkable legacy of Joaquín Torres-García and the “Escuela del Sur”.
Boriguay: Off The Grid, opening in our LES Gallery, is a special project within the annual Bormix Festival's main exhibition, 'BoriGuay: Sur.' Featuring artists: Luis Camnitzer, Gabo Camintzer, G. Rosa-Rey, and Liliana Farber, all based in New York City, this exhibition's title, "Off The Grid," signifies more than symbolism. It encapsulates the essence of the show, mirroring the artists' defiance of established boundaries, a core theme of the exhibition that challenges conventional territorial notions. By exploring societal systematizations and their influence on our relationship with the land, this exhibition dives into abstraction, innovative technologies, humor, and profound collective inquiries. These works transcend the ordinary, offering fresh perspectives on boundaries and perceptions.
