Beyond the progressive erasure of the concepts of centre and periphery it is about time Central America is not presented as a peripheral area, not only vis-a-vis the international arena but particularly towards itself We must assume our right to a complete membership in the international artistic community and act responsibly respecting our own context and conditions understanding them and starting out from there, not pretending to situate ourselves elsewhere, rather working from within a context which makes us different, yet equal which defines.
From the very valuable contributions we will have during these three days, we could say the most important part of the symposium should happen after it. It is difficult to express to all of you how important it is to have you here, and observe the large response to our summons. I would also like to stress the stimulating response of our colleagues in Spain, the United States, Peru Chile and other countries, coming as observers of the symposium To all of you thank you so much for being here This Symposium is the result of intense teamwork.
