ABSTRACT

The Good Life/La Buena Vida is a multi-part video project composed of over 400 video interviews with pedestrians on the streets of 12 cities in Latin America, shot between 2005 and 2008. The work examines processes of democratization as they relate to US interventionist policies in the region. The Good Life/La Buena Vida is formed of an Internet archive (la-buena-vida.info), a video installation, and a series of commissioned texts and articles.
