Cassano’s “In Memoriam”

Cassano’s “In Memoriam”

Until May 18, you can visit the exhibition “In Memoriam”, by Gabriela Cassano, at Cassa Espacio (Zapata 256, Monday to Friday from 3 to 7 p.m. by appointment at 11-6544-6937). The exhibition is dedicated to the Mothers of the Plaza de Mayo, to Ofelia Alicia Cassano, the artist’s sister, a detainee who disappeared during the dictatorship, and to her friend Cristina Comandé. Made up of a set of 25 lithographs of different sizes, supports and interventions, and an installation from the “Madres” series, of screen-printed handkerchiefs, supported by large-format steel tensioners, the exhibition was mounted and curated by María Carolina Baulo . Cassano refers to her characters as “young people suspended, denied, without time or place.” We could infer that the work implicitly refers to that generation violently fractured by state terrorism imposed by the dictatorship in the 70s in Argentina.
