Descripción de la Exposición In the work Multifamiliar (2012), specially developed for the Showroom of Neuer Berliner Kunstverein, Julieta Aranda uses as a point of departure a social studies textbook for children, titled Living as Neighbors. The book-published in 1963-follows two families of different racial background, in a story line that revolves around one of the families moving into Starret City, the first low-income housing project in New York. These architectural solutions to urban housing problems-bulding complexes called Multifamiliares, Plattenbauten, Projects-have in common both a formal grandiosity (brutalism), as well as a patent disconnect to the realities of every day life within the constructs that they propose. Aranda's installation establishes a dialogue between the formal determination of housing projects, and the mundane exchanges that take place within their grid.<br> Julieta Aranda (*1975 in Mexico-City) works and lives in New York and Berlin. She studied at School of Visual Arts, New York, and at Columbia University's School of the Arts, New York.
