MATILDE MARÍN AND THE TRIMMINGS OF BEING A WITNESS ARTIST

By Violeta Méndez

Both the exhibited and the stored works draw attention in Matilde Marín’s studio. On the walls, her emblematic photographs steal the gaze, but so do the wrapped and labeled folders on her tables, the boxes full of books on the floor, and the stacks of files on her shelves. The image completes itself with her voice, the one that explains why the archive, too, is a protagonist.

THE HYPNOTIC NATURE OF AN EXPOSED STAGECRAFT

By Violeta Méndez

Just steps from the door, I heard the echoes of Tramoya. Curiosity guided my body toward the gallery, stealing from me the chance to prepare for the detours and fragmentations the works would provoke—and for the attempts to piece together those fragments within my own body.

GYULA KOSICE: INTERGALACTIC, AN EXHIBITION THAT RESHAPES HIS VISIONARY CONTRIBUTION

By Adriana Herrera Téllez, PhD

Gyula Kosice: Intergalactic is one of those axial exhibitions that unsettle the boundaries of the usual narratives of art history by incorporating visions that broaden our understanding of the contributions of foundational artists who, like this creator—born in today’s Slovenia in 1924 and later naturalized in Argentina—have not been sufficiently incorporated into the global narrative of concrete art.

A TECHNOLOGICAL GAZE AT THE PARIETAL ART BY SOFÍA CRESPO

By Álvaro de Benito

Sofía Crespo (Buenos Aires, Argentina, 1991) often centers her work on the use of biology-inspired technology. In her exploration of the common ground between artificial intelligence and the way it generates images, on the one hand, and human perception of the environment, on the other, there is a turning point in the Argentine artist's practice.
