Abstract (summary)

This essay discusses two immersive installations by Mexican artist Erick Meyenberg. I argue that both Return to the Present (2011), and Étude taxonomique et comparative entre les castes de la Nouvelle Espagne et celles du Mexique contemporain (2010) provide critical insights into the historical roots of the racial constructs that still prevail in contemporary societies.
