Memo / Artist Statement
The Mexterminator Project was an experimental theatre group led by Guillermo Gómez-Peña and La Pocha Nostra in the late 1990s. In works like the 'Mexterminator Project' (a clear reference to the superhuman, robotic assassins of the Schwarzenegger movies), this loose network of Chicano/Latino performance artists investigated issues of race and multiculturalism, gender, language, and colonialism.
