BIG TEXAS BBQ EXHIBITION CONSIDERS THE ROLE OF MUSEUMS AND GALLERIES IN CONTEMPORARY CULTURE BY INCORPORATING PICTURES INTO THE EXTERIOR OF THE NEGLECTED SPACE OF THE (BIG TEXAS BBQ)
On the 3rd of December at 14 hours, The European Cultural Community presented the BIG TEXAS BBQ exhibition in collaboration with students from UNM and with the help of the Provincial Council of Biscay (Spain), under the curatorship of Eriz Moreno. The exhibition is a photographic dialogue between the City of Albuquerque and the experience of several foreign artists. The work approaches the image of contemporary creation by exploring the sensory and emotional experiences of the artists with the City of Albuquerque.
The Big Texas BBQ exhibition consists of a mosaic of photographs that explore interspacial communication through various aspects:
1 / Though born in other countries and states, the authors are currently working in Albuquerque, offering the city feedback by presenting the artists experience of the place through photographic images .
2 / By highlighting the selected space with this installation, the Big Texas BBQ, on Route 66, becomes a more visible mark.
Responding to the common mode of transportation used in Albuquerque, visitors can experience the exhibition without leaving their vehicles. Here the images are teaming up with the architecture to shape a work that questions the need for indoor exhibitions.

In this sense, the exhibition's purpose is not to criticize but to generate a cross-cultural link created by the photographs taken by "foreigners" and displayed on the abandoned building of Big Texas BBQ on Route 66 as it passes through Albuquerque.
