	If at the beginnings of the past decade, it was thought, ingenuously,  that after a line of militar governments, Latinamerican democratic institutions were consolidated as platforms to solve social , politic and economic problematics, at the end they were only useful to unveil the governments limits.


Psychological Frontiers 
“Vladivideos” led us know the dark ways between security organisms and the high camera of Perú, erasing the national hero image, starring ex president Fujimori, and being  induced by himself, to the public opinion.
 
 Social Frontiers
Failed strike showed us a Venezuelan society divided in two factions, one of each very illiterate, and the other pretty greedy.

Symbolic Frontiers
The posponed version of the Sao Paulo Biennal has left, as a result, the turistic mythification of a country used only to export exotic stuff, divided between the tv soaps and the Deep Brazil.
