#Frontera

22.02.21 15.03.21

Andrea Fernandez Garciacelay is an artist with a restless, curious and sensitive spirit. She is always motivated to explore different paths that add learning and favor her artistic production. Her way of approaching projects is with tenacity and a playful attitude.

ARTIST STATEMENT

Art for me is a life drive. The constant search for answers enables me to go through the different expressive disciplines. I can alternate the empirical or rigorous way of working in relation to the objective that I propose. My reflections on individual and / or collective human behavior are generally my creative triggers to later transform them into the essence of my work.

ABOUT FRONTIER

Participating in this program allowed me to experience an exchange of quality, warmth and personal enrichment in my artistic production. I celebrate this intense work space, of respectful exchange, aimed at individual and collective construction that also overcomes the obstacle of time-space distance.

The Latin America's Paris

Buenos Aires is Argentine Republic's capital city. With 15,000,000 inhabitants, it is one of the largest cities in Latin America and one of the 10 most populous urban centers in the world. Its cosmopolitan and urban character vibrates to the rhythm of a great cultural offer that includes monuments, churches, museums, art galleries, opera, music and theaters; squares, parks and gardens with old groves; characteristic neighborhoods; large shopping centers and fairs. Here we also find a very good lodging facilities, with accommodation ranging from hostels to five-star hotels of the main international chains. Buenos Aires also show off about its variety of restaurants with all the cuisines of the world, as well as to have cafes and flower kiosks on every corner.

A neighborhood founded on the Jesuit farms in the 17th century

We are located in Colegiales neighborhood where the tree-lined streets, some of which still have their original cobblestones, invite you to walk. Although the apartment buildings advance, low houses still predominate. It is a district of the city where about 20 TV production companies, design studios, artist workshops and the Rock&Pop radio have been located. The neighborhood also has six squares, one of which pays homage to Mafalda, the Flea Market, shops, restaurants and cafes like its neighboring Barrios de Palermo and Belgrano, with which it limits.
