Directed to all Ibero American artists (from Latin America, Spain and Portugal), Ilustrados (Illustrated) is part of a project that started in the year 2008 within the framework of our mission to give visibility to Argentine and Latin American artists and to promote the crossroads between the artists in residency at ‘ace and the different artistic disciplines.
From this year, the format also includes a dialogue with the artist invited to exhibit at the Dialogue Space (Mezzanine). This was the case with the previous open call, Pinhole, in which the work of the artist-in-residence Jackie MacRae (a series of pinhole photographs changed in scale and printed on metal) was in dialogue with the work of the Argentine and Peruvian artists in the central hall, having In these cases a provoked displacement of the scale and the environment in which we normally see these works.
In the previous calls (More than a thousand, Buenos Aires 2.0, Entre Islas, Videoartists, Bidimensionario, Pinhole) we have received a large number of proposals from illustrators, so we have decided to make a specific call for this discipline, which will also investigate their performances in other areas such as comics, design, graffiti, etc.
The selected artists will participate with their works in digital format at the ´ace nite on Wednesday August 10th at 7 pm, together with the exhibition openings of the artists in residence Ayanah Moor (USA) and Alexandra Carter (USA).
