THE ORDERS OF LOVE
Lucila Penedo y Novoa
Curator: Cecilia Nisembaum
This exhibition project has its starting point in the research of Lucila Penedo y Novoa’s family archive built with the communication traces of an Argentine family divided by exile during the last civil-military dictatorship. How are emotional bonds transformed and survive at a distance, and with what resources and tools are family ties built? This archive, made up of different materialities – texts, drawings, photos, and audios, among others – proposes to explore possible answers by tracing the spatial and temporal trajectories of its materials to revitalize the constant exercise of memory.

CREATING OUT FROM NOTHINGNESS
Sexual disobedience and political imagination in contemporary art
Curatorship: Fernando Davis, Fermín Acosta, Mina Bevacqua y Nicolás Cuello.
This exhibition addresses the exchanges between contemporary artistic practices, activism, and sexual politics in the Argentine scene from the 1960s onwards, with the aim of discussing a set of experiences that, discomforting and overflowing the established divisions between art and politics, contributed to question the normalized production of bodies and sexual and gender identities. These are multiple initiatives that articulated their radical desires for transformation in a bid to displace the limits of what is possible through different sensitive artifacts, collective strategies, and collaborative ways of doing, which created conditions for the invention of new subjectivities, affections and alternative lifestyles.

Elda Cerrato
