We were invited to the fifth edition of Buenos Aires Photo --the fair dedicated exclusively to photography-- which opens its doors to the public on October 28Th.This is a particularly interesting event held every year at the Palais de Glace, a former ice skate rink built in 1910 that became an exhibition center later on. In addition to the art dealers from Argentina--a great number really-- this year there are galleries from seven countries showing the best works of their star photographers.
Buenos Aires Photo
Palais de Glace - Posadas 1727
From October 28 to November 1
What a good idea to use this formet ice skate rink as an exhibition room!

Dear Greet: Yes, it was a great idea. And even before, it was a tango hall, sort of the first one in Buenos Aires where "high society" would dance tango in the 40´s (don't forget tango was considered originally a marginal and sort of seedy dance, only good for bordellos)
ReplyDeleteWish I could go to this place!! Now . . .
ReplyDeleteDear Photodiarist: The show was great! Will post some pictures when I have a minute (not easy with the hectic Buenos Aires schedule)
