ejecucion en museo: Eder Castillo

Ichiro is a trained dog for a contemporary art museum downtown Mexico City. The project was part of the 12th. International Performance Festival by Eder Castillo and René Hayashi. This is a small documentary about the training and presentation

Until early September 2006, Ichiro, a year and half-old dog, had no name or home: he was a stray dog wandering Licenciado Verdad street in downtown Mexico City. But he was lucky. Artists Eder Castillo and René Hayashi took him in and made him part of their "Museum Dogs" project, part of the 12th International Performance Exhibition of the Ex Teresa Museum. His brief training was successful and Ichiro, still on a leash, guided 3 weekend tours through 6 pictures of Irish painter Patrick Mallow's "Fanatic from Hell" exhibition.

When the Ex Teresa reopened in January of 2007, his training needed to be reinforced to be taken back to the museum. The decision was easy, says Castillo "Ichiro isn't a piece, he's a living being, and we need to put ourselves in his situation and say 'Well, what does he need? What's more important: to keep him giving tours or to make sure he's OK? I think the second one wins out."
(Museum curator and Ichiro's owner Edith) Medina explains that the tours were never the main point, because the art itself was actually the process itself- a mix of performance and public and social art- which started the moment Ichiro became part of the project. The conclusion of the piece was his adoption.
