This activity is part of the schedule designed by the National Ministry of Culture to commemorate the task of Abuelas and will be with free admission but prior reservation through the following link: https://linktr.ee/reservas.ccborges.
As part of these tributes, the portfolio led by Tristán Bauer also promotes the reissue of “Identidad”, the exhibition that was exhibited for the first time at the Recoleta Cultural Center between November 1998 and January 1999, and later at the Parque de la Memory in 2020.
The proposal had the support of Grandmothers, who added the essential information they had been collecting since 1977, and was accompanied by visual artists such as Carlos Alonso, Nora Aslan, Mireya Baglietto, Remo Bianchedi, León Ferrari, Rosana Fuertes, Daniel Ontiveros, Carlos Gorriarena, Adolfo Nigro, Luis Felipe Noé, Marcia Schvartz, Juan Carlos Romero and Diana Dowek.
“Today the grandsons and granddaughters have surpassed the age of their own disappeared parents, but many of them have already been parents and their children, our great-grandsons and great-granddaughters, also have the right to know the truth. In this reissue of Identidad, an installation that through mirrors and portraits of our disappeared sons and daughters questions the visitor with the absences, invites those who have doubts about their identity to inquire about that void, a void that belongs to all of society, that 46 years after the coup still has disappeared alive”, explain the Grandmothers of Plaza de Mayo in the curatorial text of the exhibition.
“Identity” is composed of a series of photographic portraits of the disappeared in the last civic-military dictatorship with mirrors interspersed where the viewer can see himself reflected. The visual strategy sought to rescue some physical resemblance between them and their illegally appropriated children, young people who were between 19 and 25 years old at the time, the same age as their parents when they disappeared.
This reissue is completed with an audiovisual piece that presents various testimonies and archive material on the work of Abuelas and can be visited at Tecnópolis until October 23, Thursdays and Fridays from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Saturdays, Sundays and holidays from 12 a.m. to 19, with free admission.
