British-born, Mexico City-based artist Melanie Smith (born 1965) created three audiovisual works for the Mexican Pavilion at the 54th Venice Biennale, each documented in this volume: "Aztec Stadium" (which takes place in Mexico's largest stadium), "Xilitla" (on Edward James' Surrealist palace) and "Package" (in which a large, red packet bursts into various public spaces).
