e-flux Electronic Flux Corp. New York City May 1, 2001 Dear Friends, In celebration of the International Workers Day we are pleased to announce the launch of 100% FREE, a project and a free multiple by Mejor Vida Corp. (Better Life Corporation), presented in cooperation with kurimanzutto, Mexico D.F. To view the project please go to: http://www.e-flux.com “In 1998 the artist Minerva Cuevas launched an ingenious and complex ongoing economic fiction as a means of exploring the politics of contemporary hope: Mejor Vida Corp. (Better Life Corporation). …The company would experiment with an unheard-of modality of aesthetic and political intervention involving systematic acts of generosity purportedly fulfilling urgent demands from the public.” Cuauhtémoc Medina TRANS> 8, 2000 Minerva Cuevas is currently working at the Delfina Studio Program, London. Among the exhibitions Cuevas has participated in are: Casino 2000, S.M.A.K. Museum. Ghent; Locus Focus, Sonsbeek 2001.
