At Pinta BAphoto, a wide variety of galleries are exhibited, known for the quality of their proposals, showcasing modern and contemporary artists from different countries whose artistic practices are deeply intertwined with the language of photography.
The section is organized around performance and photoperformance as an expanded field within contemporary art. The body appears in the works both as material and as record, opening questions around identity, territory, and memory.
The section brings together galleries and artists from different regions of Argentina who approach photography from diverse perspectives. It invites us to explore how the image can become part of broader processes where technique, narrative, and material experimentation intersect. In this way, photography unfolds as a shifting territory, capable of activating memories, narratives, and experiences that open new ways of seeing and telling.
In this edition, Pinta BAphoto pays tribute to Anatole Saderman (Moscow, 1904 – Buenos Aires, 1993), whose work transformed Argentine photography by combining technical rigor with poetic sensibility. His portraits and visual studies of artists and writers created a body of work that continues to influence contemporary photography both locally and internationally.
Video Project presents a solo show dedicated to the work of artist Donna Conlon, who lives and works in Panama. With a career spanning more than two decades, the U.S.-born biologist and artist (b. 1966) has articulated powerful artistic statements of social and ecological critique through her photographs and videos, which reflect humanity’s reckless behavior in a globalized world.
The cycle aims to bring closer to the general public those proposals that contemplate diversity in productive processes and techniques, resulting in different visual outcomes. In order to create bridges between visitors and the artworks, the curator conducts an explanatory tour through a colloquial and accessible language, while keeping in mind the need to promote the creation of new audiences for contemporary art.
FORO es un espacio de encuentro y reflexión sobre las problemáticas y estéticas de la fotografía contemporánea y moderna. En esta edición, se propone explorar la fotografía como un campo expandido, más allá de los límites tradicionales, ofreciendo nuevas formas de ver y pensar la imagen fotográfica.
