Cuaderno de tareas de Ana Victoria Jiménez
(re-imagined by andrea ancira and Nina Hoechtl, in cooperation with Mark Pezinger Books and the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna)
This launch offers an intimate journey into the process of research, imagination, and collaboration, as well as the conceptual and visual decisions that shaped Ana Victoria Jiménez’s Cuaderno de tareas / Work planner (2025).
Cuaderno de tareas brings to life the vision Ana Victoria Jiménez had long held: a work planner designed to document and raise awareness of the care work that sustains life.
Ana Victoria Jiménez (1941-2025, Mexico City) was a feminist artist, editor, and activist who played a pivotal role in documenting the work of feminist activists and artists from the 1960s through the 1990s in Mexico. Her dedication led to the creation of Mexico’s largest feminist archive, housed at the Francisco Xavier Clavijero Library (Ibero-American University), which was recognized by UNESCO in 2024 as part of its Memory of the World program.
This Cuaderno de tareas is dedicated to Ana Victoria Jiménez, to the countless acts of care that made her archive possible, and to the reproductive labor that sustains both personal and collective struggles and histories. WE HOLD ANA VICTORIA JIMÉNEZ IN OUR MEMORY!
