Clara Nerone
Tested Artifices to Destroy the Vortex

21.10.24 08.11.24

Visual artist and photographer, Clara Nerone specialises in photography and the documentation of works of art, collaborates in the research, dissemination and enhancement of photographic archives and is an assistant lecturer in Project Management in the BA in Photography at the Universidad Nacional de San Martín. She is also part of the Annemarie Heinrich Archive in the area of digital preservation. Clara likes to think that she can re-imagine the world she inhabits and create, in collaboration and interrelation, liquid images.

Clara Nerone was part of the Constelaciones fellowship programme of QUINCHO–Red Argentina de Residencias Artísticas. As part of this programme, Clara spent two weeks at the Poliniza residency (Río Ceballos, Córdoba) testing some photosensitive materials and sound practices, then coming to ´ace to produce works in our workshop which she then shared with the local public in an open studio format.

ARTIST STATEMENT

My work emerges from different photosensitive explorations. I investigate the relationships and possible links between community, technology and nature by investigating the visualities and temporalities of images. I work in series and installations, through gestures, operations and procedures of photography, audiovisual and sculpture in dialogue -and tension- with the aesthetics and imaginaries of progress, modernity and science fiction.

On November 6th, 2024, between 1pm and 5pm, we opened the ´ace studio to share with the local public the processes of the residents of the October-November period.

Neal Hall (USA) gave a reading of some of his poems, which are part of his body of work entitled Abolist. Visitors to the open studio were able to enjoy Hall’s reading of his earlier poems, as during his time at ´ace, Neal was busy navigating the local circuit and getting his ideas down on paper.

Ana Catelli (Bahía Blanca, Argentina), present thanks to the Semillero 2024 fellowship in collaboration with the Williams Foundation, presented her work Mapa sensorial de Sauce Grande. Taking elements from the area, together with photographs taken by the artist herself, drawings, audio instructions and a video projection, Ana unfolded the territory of Sauce Grande in a multimedia installation that took over the Espacio Diálogo and the Central Hall of our studio.

Clara Nerone (CABA, Argentina) is a fellow of Constelaciones, the programme of QUINCHO-Red Argentina de Residencias Artísticas. As part of her residency at ´ace, Clara worked on the material she had previously obtained at the Poliniza residency (Río Ceballos): cyanotypes taken from tributaries, photosensitive papers submerged in bodies of water and recordings made with a hydrophone.

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.
