The exhibition lies in a place between fiction and register, which queries contemporary mores but is also reflects on the space where discourse is presented and the other is encountered.
Argentina is a melting pot of poetry and history which rise above mere geographical references. Here, each work refers to a different aspect of a common narrative, as the landscape is the protagonist, despite the different approaches in evidence: the strangeness of extremes, or the destruction wrought by an uncontainable nuclear disaster. Artificial constructions appear as an alternative, questioning what it is that we perceive, desire and appreciate. This confusion leads us towards a future of machines and technology that beckon with promises of well-being, freedom and creativity, things we wisely distrust.
Imagination, the last chapter, is where the artists ironically parody and fantasize while offering other realities, some of which critically refer to situations of daily violence. Disturbing, these suggest a latent tendency, something we know is there which constantly challenges us despite our efforts to ignore it.
