En busca del sentido perdido

Sinopse

The book comprises10 Argentinean art projects that were part of author Gonzalez' personal experience or were created between 1998 and 2008 in institutions not related to traditional art circuits. The book includes many color photographs and a DVD with the graphic documentation of 4 of the projects. Curator Valeria Gonzalez explains her book "As art historian and curator I have shared the experiences that have been most relevant to my professional growth with many of the artists included here, that the desire that motivates my work is the search for forms where the connections between aesthetics, politics and ethics might be continually reinvented in contemporary terrains, instead of merely surviving, always under threat by the predominance of power, the impunity of capital and the widespread anesthesia induced by media culture () for the artists in this book, the past is a chest containing sense that has been lost, and their task of recovering and readdressing it is by far a more complex and subtle one."--Page [5].
