In Puerto Madero, the works enjoy the greatest visibility and it is worth appreciating the capacity achieved by the artists, when they have time, an inspiring place and the necessary resources. Leo Battistelli began projecting the installation “Stellar Dialogue” in 2018. “Over the course of four years I dedicated myself to painting the stars one by one, studying the sky, putting together the great map and designing the mounting templates for each of the 88 constellations.” A 255-meter bed of stone, covered by a few centimeters of water, contains the star map with various constellations and 2,500 stars made in porcelain half spheres. “I painted each of the stars with gold and platinum. In this way, like convex mirrors, they reflect the sky.” That same night Battistelli enjoyed the possibility of contemplating the real sky and the very representation of it.
Two huge sculptures by Elba Bairon escort the “Star Dialogue”. Bairon’s barely suggested forms mobilize the sensibility and help insert the viewer into the universe of artistic creation. “I set out to return to the relationship between sculpture, architecture and landscaping. For this I imagined two volumes in bronze that amalgamate the organic and the abstract. I hope that the residents, the occasional visitors, find in this timeless landscape a parenthesis of calm in the middle of the city”.
In the lobby, Daniel Joglar’s hoops, suspended in space, float and sway as if by magic. Joglar’s theme is the power of enchantment, the illusory aspects, and the spells of art. His talent consists in knowing the precise place that the various elements that he uses should occupy in order to achieve perfect harmony and an encounter with beauty. From now on, the works are chosen to coexist with them and gratify the gaze. Baudelaire regarded adornment as a sign of the nobility of the human soul.
Alejandra Sebeer presents the joy of design in a wallpaper wall. Right there, with ingenuity, she incorporates some playful waves made of glass. However, she concludes: “This piece is an anti-wallpaper in the sense that the pattern is unfindable and is composed of many elements of my current paintings.”
Karina Peisajovich investigates color and light, her geometries respond to the desire to frame the mystery. “Light is expansive, it has no form in itself but takes the form of the space that contains it. These frames enclose a luminous space that also contains penumbra: an out-of-focus shadow that is cast in the same light,” she observes. Peisajovich experiences the possibilities of color through projected, contained, filtered, mixed, superimposed light and in multiple interactions. Federico Lanzi’s abstractions, his colored clouds on canvas, Lola Goldstein’s cheerful paintings and Juan Solanas’ video complete the set. While the Malba, once its founder had left, finds its autonomy, the Oceana selection allows us to know the evolution of the collector’s taste. It shows his subjectivity and the domain acquired to move comfortably and as a homeowner, in the shifting territory of aesthetics.
