What : Laura Torres Intro and artist talk
When: April 15th, 7:30 pm
Where: @ the Berwick Research Intitute, 14 Palmer St, Dudley Sq, Roxbury

Laura Torres will be working on a project about soccer and Ecuador's
participation in the sport on a global scale. As both an insider and an
outsider to both US and Ecuadorian culture, she has often felt herself
in a unique position of constant negotiation of cultural boundaries.
Never having been much of a soccer or sports fan, Laura was strangely
riveted by Ecuador's part in the World Cup and felt connected to a huge
network of fans worldwide. Soccer's inherent minimalism allows for
an in-depth appreciation of the network of plays and movement of the
body. She hopes the weather will soon get warm enough to play fútbol
with other Boston fans.
