IRONY, LITERALITY AND CITATION. ARGENTINA’S DNA AT PAC MILAN
The exhibition Argentina. The night tells the day at Padiglione d’Arte Contemporantea (PAC) presents a selection of works created by more than twenty Argentinean artists of different generations over the last fifty years.

Curated by Andrés Duprat and Diego Sileo, the exhibition features sculptures, installations, photographs, videos and performances. The curatorial project develops along three axes –irony, literality and citation– presenting different approaches to the representation of a culture often characterised, in the past as well as today, by forms of violence. Situations and attitudes that overcome conjunctures and settle into a question about the future and what social battles to fight, in Argentina and the rest of the world. A heterogeneous project that also tries to narrate and bring out the many different aspects and forms of expression of a country that for years was the main destination of the great European migrations.
