Abstract

A theoretical journey and thoughts on art and design, as well as a dialogue between works by contemporary Argentine artists that are linked through a common syntax between them, a syntax based on operations and denial strategies of the original functionality of the objects, functionalities that operate from a model that was instilled in us, where objects must serve us, obey and be beautiful. These are objects that struggle with their role model, their canonical or normative condition, they are at the same time real and represented, objects and things, static and dynamic. They are objects that offer us a look at the transformations experienced within the material culture of everyday life. They help us recognize certain concrete aspects that distinguish people's lives and turn particular and social situations into plausible experiences to be narrated.
