2008.7.16　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

Another edition of ArteBA walks by and there’s not very much to say. This contemporary art galleries fair recruits a sample of what is in the market nowadays. After the 5 day collective exhibit ends, all I can hear is...

The phenomenon resulting from the passion for rock music and culture is becoming more and more interesting. The Beautiful Ones is a clear example. Agustina and Lisandro Rodríguez, fashion designer and publicist respec...

JULIA MASVERNAT

2008.6.6　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

Julia Masvernat could easily be portrayed in a time travelling movie. She’s got an antique beauty, as if she got out of a classic 50s film or so. But she could be someone from Zarist Russia. She seems ageless, a woman...

SANTIAGO IDELSON

2008.4.17　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

I believe some people live with their inner child right beside them. Every morning, they wake up together; they have breakfast together and spend all day together. The child is the one leading the way, while the adult...

ARY KAPLAN NAKAMURA

2008.3.18　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

2008.1.25　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

"Never forget to look at the stars", he said. That’s what I was doing some days before we met. And I was also looking at the stars when I found his book, this colourful and brilliant book with his art all over it. I r...

IGNACIO MASLLORENS

2007.12.27　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

I’m arriving at the bar. It’s the third time I call Nacho Masllorens. I’m worried he will miss the place where we have to meet. I’m not sure he knows that place so I insist. He gets there, I sigh. The interview begins...

CRISTIAN TURDERA

2007.12.13　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

Cristian Turdera has created a dream world for us. When I entered his place, I found myself in the middle of one of those children’s books, the ones you won’t let go, those books that will remain forever inside your d...

TODD SHALOM

2007.10.25　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

Here's a global artist. Here's a guy who believes in life and its whereabouts. Here’s someone who performs and creates. Here, there and everywhere. Ladies and gentlemen, I give you Todd Shalom. What does "Bea...

ALEJANDRO PARISI

2007.6.15　 Text: Gisella Lifchitz

As most painters, he began drawing as a little boy and he was very good at it. He remembers using the same colours now than when he was in primary school. Then, he studied many careers and got bored of them all. And a...

ANDRES FERNANDEZ CORDON

2007.1.30　 Text: Gisella Natalia Lifchitz

They say you find things when you're not looking for them. In this case, this is completely true. I don't know what led me to the Internet that night but I surely know what kept me there, cruising for a long while as ...
