mexican artist hector zamora exhibited works as part of arsenale at the venice art biennale 09.
zamora creates social interventions that manifest themselves in all media and are always
based on deep research into the history of a place and its inhabitants' collective memory,
myths, and desires. for venice, he created a fictitious festival - 'sciame dei dirigibili' (2009)
of dirigibles (airships) over the city which manifested itself in public spaces and exhibition venues.
