In his works, procedures involving the making of a surrealistic object, such as the assembly of dissimilar elements and the oneiric component, take on frantic forms resembling nightmares where pleasure and pain seem to merge. Aráoz uses materials as if they expiate sadistic sensations, and takes them to the utmost limits of expressivity and torsion. In narrative scenes he mixes plaster monsters, amorphous masses of resin, trainers, neon lights and biscuits with embalmed cats, mice and birds, thus shaping a world of emotional psychedelics with visual references to the domestic environment of an adolescent Nicanor Araoz studied Psychology and also received a scholarship from ISCP Visual Arts at National University of (International Studio & Curatorial La Plata.

Referente central del arte contemporáneo local, para Bianchi la práctica artística es un ámbito de ensayo e indeterminación. Sus obras, esculturas, instalaciones y performances relacionan lo abyecto, lo “sin valor”, lo obsoleto, poniendo en tensión armonía y fragilidad, horror y belleza. Plantea la posible simbiosis entre los cuerpos y los objetos, la asimilación misma del cuerpo como objeto y las interconexiones absurdas que existen entre las cosas del mundo Entre sus mas recientes proyectos Malta Festival Poznan.

Joaquín Boz Rojas, Argentina Sin título Oil painting on wood 2018 302 x 204 cm Joaquín Boz (Rojas, 1987) creates abstract paintings and drawings in different scales, working with the characteristics that matter provides from the body and gestures. In his works, intensity is placed upon the development of the work, and the materials change according to the medium. Each work presents a different story to appreciate, both in its entirety and in the details, where the different stages of his work are perceived. His paintings and drawings are the result of loading processes on the material that cover and discover, reveal and conceal, weaken and strengthen. Every painting brings to light the presence of numerous discrete decisions and organic networks of hieroglyphic marks that register intimate and piercing conversations between the artist and his materials. Joaquín Boz studied at the Faculty Arte Contemporáneo de Rosario of Humanities and Arts of the (Santa Fe, 2013), Bienal de Arte National University of Rosario (2005 Joven Buenos Aires (Centro Cultural - 2009) and attended workshops Konex, Buenos Aires, 2013), Premio with Claudia del Río (2009 - 2011), Braque (Universidad Nacional Tres de Ernesto Ballesteros, Rafael Cippolini Febrero, Buenos Aires, 2013), Ruth (2010) and Valentina Liernur (2012 Benzacar Galería de Arte (Buenos - 2013).

Gabriel carries out his anthropological and visual research beginning from two key concepts that are present all across the body of his oeuvre. These are the engineering of need, consisting on creating objects and structures from art that collaborate in improving the conditions of a certain borderline situation; and the genealogy of shape, which implies acknowledging that every object in its historical repetition provides a story to tell, that is recovered and updated in relation to the new context. The artist utilizes both axioms to make sculptures, do paintings, and build big scale installations that allow several communities overshadowed by history and power structures to gain visibility and have a voice. Gabriel acts like a visual anthropologist: he studies his surrounding context, deconstructs it in new morphologies, charges it with new meaning and throws it into the world in the form of objects and images inviting to reflect on the relation between each other Gabriel Chaile studied Visual Arts at My name is legion because we are the National University of Tucumán. many (Centro Cultural San Pablo T, In 2009 he was awarded with a Tucumán, 2016), It’s not my fault if it scholarship by Fundación YPF which comes from the river (Centro Cultural allowed him to be a part of the first Recoleta, Buenos Aires 2015), Leave edition of the Artist Program of the furrow to till the earth, delusions Torcuato Di Tella University.
