A wish for the President

In the latest edition of Zona Maco, Mexican contemporary art fair, I invite the visitors to write a wish for Lic. Felipe Calderón Hinojosa President of Mexico. Here is Iliana Furlong writing his wish.


Miguel de la Madrid, son of former Mexican President Miguel de la Madrid, also wrote his wish. This action took place at the booth of the contemporary art magazine Caviar Izquierda.

Love is Back 4 The Wish Project by G.I.

The Mexican brand, Love is Back, created this shirt as a part of the collaborations I do with fashion designers in order to create pieces of clothing that promotes the action of wishing.
And this one has a pair of ruby red slippers based on the ones that Dorothy had (The Wizard of OZ). I took these photos in Mexico City and the guy is a friend and a model from Role Models called Eddie Sir.

The Wish Project @ Caviar Izquierda

In the second issue of contemporary art Mexican magazine Caviar Izquierda there is an aktion by me. Where I ask the readers of the magazine to write three wishes in a piece of paper, burn it and then mail it to me. The idea is to remember them that the act of wishing is the beginning of a reality change.

Three Wishes at the Museum of Moder Art -Mexico


Last wednesday, September 29th, was the annual auction at the Museo de Arte Moderno of Mexico Vivo Foundation. Here I present, for the first time, the portraits I did early this year of young guys after I asked them to make a wish. Each one is holding a simple object that individuals use to make a wish. From left to right, Pablo has a coin, Johann a "wish bone" and José 12 grapes.

I wish in Sitges


Last weekend, late July, I went to Sitges. One of the prettiest beach town in the world. I made a wish, as I always do, after I leave a post-it with the word of wish in Catalan.
