UNA MEMORIA TOSCA | RES

ROLF ART is pleased to announce today’s RES’s solo show opening, titled UNA MEMORIA TOSCA, from 7 pm. at Esmeralda 1353, Buenos Aires, Argentina.

‘Una memoria Tosca’ articulates two questions: on the one hand, a question about the elusive gaps of the memory and, on the other hand, about the insurrectionary event. Acronyms and guidelines from the popular political memory border on what can be preserved from that breaking point which unfolds throughout history as a secret miracle, regardless of the massive information that we have nowadays about May, 29th in 1969, which can be contemplated in detail on the topography that the rebels left.

From half a century since El Cordobazo, we can see in this exhibition a piece of memory from Córdoba city, a genealogy from the popular episode and the history of the avant-garde art that tackles the performance of the bodies manifesting themselves. Res makes the following intertwine: popular acronyms and guidelines, records and testimonies, the relationship between art and politics, borderlines between art and what is not art, training and procedures processes as formulae for his work that travels back to the insistence of past demonstrations in order to question the present.

The exhibition admission free, may be visited from Monday to Friday from 11 a.m. to 8 p.m. until Friday, December 7, 2018.
