I am...
I am a Chicago-based artist, native of Buenos Aires, Argentina and Professor at the School of art and Design of the University of Illinois at Chicago. I work in multiple media – including photography, installation, and digital cinema. - My work amalgamates critical thinking with poetry, and metaphor with documentation.
About my artwork
I have exhibited internationally and my work is included in the collections of the Museum of the Art Institute of Chicago, and La Bibliothèque National de Paris, France, among others. I received numerous awards and prizes, including The CINE Golden Eagle Award for my first film Burnt Oranges- a feature length experimental documentary about the long-term effects and repercussions, personal and social, of Argentina's 1970’s state terrorism. In 2005, my digital video animation The Stream of Life received the Lorenzo De Medici First Prize Award in New Media at the 5th Edition of International Biennale of Contemporary Art, Florence, Italy.
